Will's First Road Trip


On Saturday, we bravely ventured to Auburn for Shealy's baby shower. I did not make the decision to go until Friday. I just couldn't miss it! Will was such a trooper. He did not make a peep in the car the whole ride there or on the way back. When we arrived, he woke up just enough to eat and then went back to sleep. The shower was at Shealy's sister's house and she has 2 boys. So I left him in Luke's room which was complete with swing. He slept in the swing for the ENTIRE shower. I kept checking on him and he was out! Once the shower was over we woke him up so that all of my bible study and Drake buddies could meet him. There are few people that I would drive 2 hours less than 2 weeks after my child was born, but Shealy is most certainly one of them and I am SO glad we went!! It was so fun and I would have hated to miss out. The picture above cracks me up. On our way out of Auburn, John said he could not bring his son to the Plains without introducing him to the stadium. He asked if we could drop by and let him take a picture with him. I of course was not going to tell him no and I think it is precious. Look how proud John is!! He wanted to get him out of the car seat but since he was sound asleep I convinced him not to! I cannot imagine what this year's football season is going to be like watching John with Will. I am sure there will be many funny blog posts to come once Fall is here!
