Hello! Harper and I are at Mugga and Grandpa's in Wisconsin. We drove up with them today. From Ohio. It took eight hours.
Eight hours in a car.
With a two-year-old.
Which, as it turns out, is exactly the situation God forsaw when he created the portible DVD player and Dora the Explorer DVDs, available at the library.
Harper was an angel.
Please don't send me hate mail. . . we only use that thing for these long trips. Let's face it, sitting on the freeway in bumper to bumper traffic outside of Chicago is no picnic even if you are an adult!
We even made it all the way with no bathroom accidents.
So we're here for a week. It's vacation. My summer classes are finished. I plan to spend the week being relatively lazy and trying to catch up on some of the things I didn't blog about this summer, such as:
a visit from Giselle and her beautiful children
two visits from Mugga
a visit from Aunt Meaghan
a visit from Auntie Shannon
our fifth anniversary and a huge surprise from Matt
All this and pictures coming up -- stay tuned!

I hopped over here from Mommy Daisy. I just got back from a vacation with our two 19 month olds that was made so much better due to the portable DVD player and ELMO's world. And we only travelled 3 hours. Hope the rest of your trip goes well!
Hey, I love that Harper travels well in the car. Because that means you can come visit US!! Say Hi to your family from me and enjoy enjoy enjoy.
This line is so funny: "Which, as it turns out, is exactly the situation God forsaw when he created the portible DVD player and Dora the Explorer DVDs."
Oh, have a fun time! I'm sure you'll enjoy the relaxing. We'll look forward to story time. :D
