Whoosh! That was quite the trip. Very busy, and great to see so many people, but I am happy to be home. Sharing a room with an infant is NOT easy. I remember why I moved Charlie from our room to his nursery so quickly. Charlie did really well considering he slept in several different places, and was shuttled around, poked at, and held by so many people. He was normally a happy, smiley guy, but by yesterday afternoon, he was done! Needless to say, we had a tough night last night. But again, he did pretty well on the drive back, and it was over 7 hours!
Although these long trips are draining, there is one thing I savor about them. Driving in the car with Jason. We really get an opportunity to just talk. Not that we don't get to do that anyway. After all, I am from the loud family, and can't shut up. But, it's good to have a significant period of time to vent, bounce ideas off of each other, and plan. We usually do this every day...it's just the abbreviated version. We sing songs together, laugh about silliness we see while driving, and discuss stories we are listening to on NPR. It's relaxing and comfortable. Some may see that as a downfall of an "old" relationship, but I definitely see it as a perk :)
