We made our first road trip this past weekend. Bill and Rita are on a boat trip and were at Green Turtle Bay in KY on Saturday night. We decided that it wasn't too far, so we went to see them. JT took Maggie to daycare that morning and I got us all packed and ready. It is amazing how much stuff you have to take to leave the house with our little man. Will slept for most of the car ride which made it quite pleasant for us.
When we got to the lake, we barely stopped the car before Rita (Nonna) grabbed Will and took him to show off to friends Maury and Karen. And the spoiling continues...
We had lunch at the marina restaurant and Will entertained everyone by talking and staring at ceiling fans (his favorite). Then we got to the boat and Will took a nap while me and JT played on kayaks and Pops rode around in Will's Way. Side note - I should have been kayaking throughout my pregnancy, then I would have some awesome arm muscles that I need to carry around Will and his car seat.
When Will woke up, I put him in his new bathing suit and hat. Adorable!!!! He wasn't loving the shirt that went with it because it was long sleeved to keep him protected from the sun. He wasn't having any part of that shirt, so I had to put his t-shirt back on him. We went up to the pool where it was shady, and Will fell asleep again. I think JT put Will's feet in the pool before we left, but I don't really think we can count this as real pool time.
Will slept great on the boat - a little rocking and water noise was all he needed. The next morning we put him in Will's Way with Pops and officially christened the little boat. Gram had sent us with a little bottle of champagne, just Will's size, and Pops poured it over the side.
With a little help from Pops, Will christens Will's Way.
It was a great first trip for us. Hopefully the first of many to come.
