Friday was a crazy day. I ended up having to work and got home late. Luckily we had packed most of our stuff on Thursday evening so we could leave once I got home. I quickly showed and we headed to Idaho but didn't get to leave until 7. I was really worried about how Liam would do in his car seat but he ended up doing great. We put him in the convertible car seat which he seems to do much better in and we only had to stop once for him since he was crying. We stayed in a local hotel and met up with everyone the next morning. Everyone slept well at the hotel. But the kids wished we had more time to actually swim in the pool. It was a stake baptism so we sat and waited for our turn. I don't love the cattle herding feeling that comes with stake baptisms and the impersonal nature of having general speakers so Im grateful Huntsville doesn't have them. After the baptism we headed back to Ris's for lunch and visiting before heading home.
This was the first time the Pugmire were meeting Liam. Justin and Ris were the only ones that seemed interested. They both held him for a long time and Justin fed him his bottle. As a side note, I have been pumping a lot more rather than breastfeeding since Liam seems to do better with that. It also is nice to not have to leave the "party" when everyone else it visiting. We timed it just right to get him fed and played with before hitting the road to head home. I was thrilled and relieved when Liam fell asleep shortly after leaving Idaho. We had planned to stop for food and gas but drove all the way to Ogden before he woke up and no one complained because we had plenty of snacks and were happy he wasn't crying and sad
It was a quick but fun weekend
