A great week



We returned to Columbus last night after a great week in New England.

First things first: Here's a link to pictures from our trip, including the beautiful one above. Also, we had our first professional family pictures taken before we left. They are available for viewing on Target's Web site. If you'd like to see them, leave a comment or e-mail me and I'll send you the access code.

As for the trip, Abby seemed to develop a lot while we were gone. She became a lot more social and, best of all, slept through the night (9+ hours) twice! We're figuring it was in part because of all the stimulation and activity that she wasn't accustomed to, but it's still a good sign.

She also was a perfect traveller. She slept most of the time on all three flights, but she was content while awake in the air, too. In the car, she usually sleeps for most of a trip. Thus, flying to New England and driving around to visit people went quite well.

We stayed with Katrina's mom and step dad in Southbridge, Mass., which is about 90 minutes west of Boston. We stayed with them several days and went to visit friends and family in Mass. and New Hampshire other days.

sounds like it was fun! I remember when Alice was that age riding in the car would just knock her out. She couldn't stay awake no matter how hard she tried.

fyi, I'll be driving through Des Moines tomorrow.
