WOw it’s Monday already thanksgiving week end has come and gone for this year. Like many of you I did my share of traveling for the holiday weekend. We took the family up to North Carolina to spend the week end with our family. Good times good times! I like it up there a little change of climate, sucked in my share of cold weather for the year, most of all I didn’t have to cook all the food, I didn’t have to watch my kids so close. Why should I? they have 2 sets of grandparents right there with them. I like everything about going up there but the drive. ugh! I dread that drive! I don’t like the drive, that 12 hours of misery of passing exit after exit town after town and longing when am I going to see my exit? it was bad when it was just the two of us now adding two little one makes it more interesting. When my first daughter was 8 months we learn something about traveling with children: Never drive during the day! it is the worst travel experience ever for mom and baby. she was crying, squirming, twitching you name it. She was not having a good time and neither was I. since that time we decide if we ever going to take that drive its going to be a night thing.
although night driving is not always ideal but it work for us. Traveling mom with a 2 year old and an 8months old strap to a car seat for 12 hours is a recipe for disaster. At least at night they go to sleep, and if they ever wake up before we get there I make sure to plan a different toy/activity for every 20 minutes.
Working the schedule is key. Well Thanksgiving is over, I can still express my thanks for safe travel. Now that mom is back to working let keep it moving!
until later
