With most of my family and friends being conveniently in Atlanta, it made sense for Zoey, Xander and me to wrap up maternity leave with a road trip.
Normally a 6 hour drive, it took just over 7 with making 5 stops for feeding and dirty diapers. Still, it was an uneventful ride with no traffic and no backseat freakouts. I think Zoey enjoyed exploring on the longer feeding stops.
Since we've been here, we've had so much fun spending time with people that mean so much to us. We even got to be here to celebrate my mom's 65th birthday!
As usual, Xander loves being on the go and meeting new people. At home, he often becomes tired of me and needs daddy time in the evening. It has been nice passing him around during the day and having him need mommy time in the evening.
