We drove 23 hours to spend Christmas in Utah with most of my family. Good times--with the exception of the endless hours in the car. Helping kids pee into the tupperware so we didn't have to stop every half an hour, Haddie getting pneumonia and a double ear infection and then waking up every night either at 3am or 5am making me stressed as to how I was going to keep her quiet and happy so as not to wake up the other many people in the house, and then during the day she was such a cranky pants. Ahhhhh! I'm glad to be back home, but we also really did enjoy our Christmas. My kids had SO much fun playing with cousins they hadn't seen for a year and a half. We also took a morning to drive down to BYU and walk around campus. I love that place! I hope at least a few of our kids decide to go there so that I can go back over the years. Thanks Marie and Ryan for letting us come and play at your new house!

It looks like you guys had a fun time! I am so sorry to hear about Haddie. I hope that she is feeling better!!
I think it is probably good you didn't stay here any longer because I would have given little Haddley pretty much anything she wanted! She grabbed my heart! There is just not much as sweet as a little one snuggling on your shoulder :)
Thanks for making the long, strenuous trip to come and spend Christmas with us! We all loved it and appreciate your efforts. And no worries, Ollie kept people up sometimes, too.
Suggestion.. try having them pee into a large diaper. It won't leak or spill and you can roll it up and it will not smell. Easy to dispose of at the next stop.
