Road trip day 4.. Indiana bound
Woke up this morning in Louisville KY after another good night sleep. So proud of my boys. Miss Plan It All, planned for sleepless nights, but they are really coming through for me. We got ready had our breakfast and got on the road again. Our drive would only be about three hours. Which then turned into about four. Still not too bad. We decided we would be staying with my husbands maternal grandmother, Betty because, my husbands father’s house(where we usually stay) was already full with guests. My husband’s sister was already staying there. I was looking forward to staying with grandma Betty because she is an amazing cook and I knew it would really make her happy to have a house full of guests. Especially two little guests in particular.
After settling in at grandma’s we headed to my husband’s fathers house for a cookout. I knew my toddler would be loving the scenery and all the land around him to roam. I say he is my outdoor boy. He loves to be outside no matter how hot or cold it is. We visited my husband’s grandfather as well, since he lives close by. It is amazing to me to see my children with their grandparents and great grandparents. I did not have either growing up and it is important to me for my kids to be around theirs. There is nothing like the love of a grandparent. On a side note, I forgot that the sun doesn’t go down in Indiana in the summer until ten o’clock at night. This is not good news to a mother trying to get kids to bed. I said I was not sticking to a schedule, but this was putting bed time way out of line.
Another good day on this wonderful road trip. Last week, when we were still home,part of the Miss Plan It All’s business included running errands for myself. I ran all my errands to include little things I knew we could use on the road. A few of those things that come to mind right now because we have already used them are: to go laundry detergent perfect for one load and After Bite wipes-I knew one of us would get stung by something. Luckily it was me and not one of the boys. Keep these items in mind for the next time you travel.
