1st Road Trip

Posted by Missy Roberts at 8:15 PM About Jake

We just got home from Jacob's first road trip.  We went to visit Uncle Ralph and Auntie Yolie in Lake Havasu.  Jacob didn't have the best ride out there Thursday night.  When it was his bed time, he started to cry (a lot) so daddy had to pull over so mommy could put Jacob to sleep.  I felt so bad for the poor baby, but he slept the rest of the way there.  It was really hot over there (about 102 degrees) so Jacob spent most of the weekend inside the house playing and sleeping except for the mornings when he and Papa were in the backyard watching the birdies eat and the boats speed by in the lake.  He was a really good boy this weekend.  His first night there was rough, but he had just spent close to 5 hours strapped into his carseat and was in an unfamiliar place so mommy and Jacob didn't get much sleep Thursday night.  Thankfully Nani and Papa were there and took him for most of the day on Friday. 

On Saturday all the boys except for Jacob rode into Laughlin where there was a Harley Run.  Jacob was dressed for the occasion, but didn't get to join in on the fun.  Maybe in about 15 years!  So he stayed home with the girls and watched movies.

On the way home Sunday, he did really well.  He played with mommy and nani in the back seat for a while, then drank his bottle and fell right to sleep.  He didn't wake up until we were just about to get off the freeway!  What a good boy...everyone was so proud of him and said we would be able to take him on a road trip again. 

We took lots of pictures of Jacob in his Harley gear and daddy will make sure to post them on the website soon.  Until next time baby... mommy and daddy love you!
