my cool little dude

Check out Mr. Cool looking out of the window of our 4Runner.

It was another 4-hour drive to Virginia Beach from our home (Centreville, Va). Before we had Aiden, Adam and I would make this drive with our eyes closed. We'd leave at odd hours to avoid traffic, we'd avoid stopping for food, bathroom, or gas...you know the tricks.

Well, now that we have little dude, the trips are a little more difficult. First of all, we have to stop for diaper changes, feedings, and carseat-fatigue. This little boy cannot be strapped to a car seat for longer than 2 hours without a break. Also, I have to sit in the back with him for his entertainment the entire ride. I must admit though, little dude makes ride more exciting for us.
