Visit to Iowa

Well this is long over-due. Just like everything else I post on here. :)
We were able to go to Iowa at the end of June/beginning of July. We spent a few days w/each family. It was nice for me, to have other people help take care of Lexi. And Lexi, of course, loved all the attention! We drove to Iowa all in one day. Talk about a sense of accomplishment. Lexi had just started potty training a week or two before this. We put her in a pull-up and off we went. Every stop we made, she was dry! And she was very good about going potty every time there was a chance. We made it in a little over 12hrs, which is great time w/a 2yr old! On the way home though, we split it up into two days. Daddy didn't think he could make the whole drive in one day. That was ok though. We rented a hotel room in St. Louis and just enjoyed our trip home!
Traveling... such a trooper!
