Whats the true sign of a good vacation?
Muddy Pjs
Well, not exactly a vacation. Josh had a job over in Paonia, CO for our friend Lucian. So we decided it was time to take Piper on her first real trip away from home. While Josh worked hard in the heat, Piper and I explored the local park and I worked during naps.
We left on the morning of her 5 month birthday at 5am and Piper napped in the car and played quietly.
Which is surprising, because for her birthday what did she get???
A Tooth!
(no photos yet, but feeling is believing)
She decided with her new tooth she should be able to launch into Dad's breakfast of Huervos Rancheros. She was seriously "into" his breakfast.
And just around the corner from Lucian's house was one of the most beautiful parks I had ever seen. Great grass and tree shade and various gyms for different ages.
She spent hours like this. She loves trees. Maple, Apple, Aspen...nothing (not event the grass) got her attention like the trees...
Breaks to gaze into the mirror.
She's sitting really well these days and is rolling like crazy. Left her for a minute and she was under the couch.
The trip home was a little harder. We tried to time it with bedtime hoping she would sleep. But no go. She's never slept long in the car and she wasn't about to start. But after awhile she settled and snoozed and was thrilled when I placed her into her crib when we got home.
