Her first trip

For Memorial Day weekend, we went to visit my family in Austin. It's only a 2 1/2 hour drive, so we thought we'd see how that went. It went well! Gramma & Grampa were so excited to see her, and they kept her a few times while we went out. Saturday we went to my sister's house and went shopping a little, and that night we went to dinner. Very nice. Nights were basically the same as they are at home, except she still wanted to sleep a lot in the morning. She doesn't do that at home. 2 of the 3 nights, it was really hard to get her to go to sleep and Friday she wouldn't go to sleep until 1:30, after crying for a while. But the good thing is she did fall asleep after crying. As hard as it was to let her lay there and cry, it was less than 10 minutes.

Mom has this thing about taking pictures of babies with toys & dolls, and she took a few pictures with a Raggedy Ann & Andy doll that my great aunt made when I was a baby. I had to share this one because it's so funny--she looks terrified of the dolls!

She was trying to capture the expression seconds before this, but the camera delay caught this instead. She's starting to have expressions that will make digital pics really fun...I can't wait to capture them!

Raggedy Ann dolls probably are a little terrifying to a baby...they don't exactly look human with the zigzag crudeness of their faces. She is getting sooo big! Very cute :)
