Another first - first night in a Hotel:)

For July 4th, the kid and i hit the road. Roadtrip to TN:) I hadn't been home since Christmas and was anxious to have a visit for the holiday. husband stayed behind to work and hold down the fort (aka chill at home without the kid and i) and tend to the other kids, nelly and sammy (yes dogs but we love them:)). the kid and i hit the road at 7:30pm on wednesday evening after work, and drove to Strasburg VA to stay at Fairfield Inn and Suites. Strasburg wasn't quite halfway but it gave me a great jump start on the drive, leaving just about 5 hours for the next morning's drive. We got to the hotel about 11pm (slightly delayed due to heavy rain for the first hour of the drive). Abram was SOO into our hotel room. the bed. the bathroom. the dressers. the nightstand. the remotes. the tv. the phonebook. the heater unit. the curtains. all at midnight.

Whats this say?? Where are we??


Free Breakfast?!? Sweet!!! Hope they have bananas...


Ohhh, whats that?? curtains I can reach?! YES!!


The pack n play i requested wasn't setup or put together when i got in the room - and it was so late. i didn't even have the energy to put it together so i just thought, i'll just keep him in bed with me, no big deal. Pft. No Big Deal - yea right! I am not accustomed to having him in bed with me and it was a restless night for both of us! he tosses, and turns and i felt like i woke up every 15 minutes haha...

And his fascination - and NOSEYNESS if thats a word - continued the next morning...

Whats in here?? Hhmmm...


Oh wait! is that a phonebook ...? lots of Fun thin pages for me ... yes!


and he barely ate breakfast with all the action and hustle/bustle of people and families and food... we hit the road shortly after breakfast and headed on down to TN to see the fam!!

Kiddy wonderland!! Hotels are great fun since there are so many new drawers to destroy and things to mess up. Having only had Wyatt at a hotel I am not sure I could handle both my kids in one room with me. He sure is getting cuter and cuter and mobile.

michelle - i don't remember seeing a Bible in there actually. He was just all over that phone book like a madman! and the curtains!

How fun for him! Kids LOVE hotels. I have only once ever had a pack and play already in the room and set up - what's up with that?! Come to think of it, it was more like an actual crib which is probably why. Nobody likes to set those dang pack and plays up - and most can't, lol!
