We drove about twelve hours today on our way to Missouri for the holidays. We'll leave Saturday with Jay's parents to go to Audriana's Great-grandmother's in Texas. =) That's some birthday present for our little girl...she hates riding in her carseat! It's cool that we arrived today, because it is also my (Jay's) mother's birthday today! We didn't get in until about 7:30 p.m. (Central), and found out on the road while traveling that my brother, Shelby, had been just within 5 minutes of us on the way to the folks on the same road. That was before we had a mini-crisis on the road where Audriana thought she had to have dinner...can you imagine. She was none too happy when she realized we weren't stopping for her because we were in podunk Missouri...we finally had to stop in this little community called Low Wassie, which was on county road [W] and over a one lane 'bridge' (highspot over the 'wassie') before state maintenence ended on the road and we pulled off to the side of the dirt road to feed her. This was after we travelled perhaps 20 minutes with Audriana screaming and hating on her toys and drink because it was something other than her mother. She would be consoled by a pacifier for two seconds before resuming the screaming, which was sorta nice...so that was somewhat stressful and by the time we did stop, Vikki and I were both a little tired of each other I think -- aren't those character building sessions just wonderful. =) One thing I do love about our marriage is that we have gotten very proficient about sitting down and talking through the times when one or both of us aren't following the principles that God has laid out for us.
Happy Birthday Audriana! Happy Birthday Mom!
