We headed down to San Diego on Saturday for Brett's 2nd birthday (yay!), but it did not start out well. First, traffic was horrific (as usual on Saturdays), 2 accidents, completely stopped for a majority of the drive, which meant Ella had more time to get bored and fussy. Since we know Ella doesn't sleep well in the car, we decided we HAD to get one good nap in so we couldn't leave until she woke up at 10 (even though the party started at 11). Because we were so late, and traffic was SO bad, we decided we had to feed her in the car since pulling over would make us even later. Of course once she almost finished her bottle, she VOMITED e.v.e.r.y.w.h.e.r.e. Twice. Luckily, I had a bib on her so it mostly got all over the bib, car seat (great) and car. It was one of those mornings where I honestly thought I was going to start crying because I was getting so frustrated! We *finally* arrived and had a great time!
As usual, Brett was very sweet and shared his toys with Ella (we have now accepted the fact that we have to get one of these music tables...I thought I could get around it)...
Ella isn't quite ready for the bounce house yet...
Ella spots a balloon...
And must have it...
Brett knows a good thing when he sees it...
Happy birthday Brett!
It turned out to be a good thing that we made Ella nap at home before we left because traffic was also awful on the way home, and Ella only slept for about 35 minutes!
On Sunday, we went to brunch with Kevin, Devon and Kaitlyn...Ella ate lots of my scrambled eggs and didn't throw up...yay!
Ella is 10 months old today! I'll do her 10 month recap next. :)
There is just no good time to drive to SD anymore, is there? I feel your pain. We had a similar experience when we drove down to Carlsbad.
ReplyDeleteDo you want to borrow our music table? It was Logan's favorite toy for a long time, but she's not into it anymore.
