I am going to change Day 4 for myself though. It will be "Birthday Boy", because Saturday is Jacob's birthday!
Day One:
A view from my day was taking Daniel on a walk. I wanted him in the stroller and the sidewalk to be in the shot.
I'm loving the weather this winter. Today it was almost 60 degrees, so I couldn't resist going out for a walk. We weren't alone. There were several people out walking, jogging and blaring music with their car windows down. I think Daniel enjoyed it, and I sure know that I did!
Daniel and I had a great trip to Iowa. We had fun visiting with Grandma, Grandpa, Aunt Kendra, and even Aunt Rachel, who stopped by to visit since she was in Cedar Rapids!
Daniel is a good little traveler, and for that I am thankful. It was an easy drive and he barely fussed at all. I found my parent's new house just fine, thanks to the help on my GPS. It's funny because I thought it would be really weird not going to our old house, since that's where I spent a majority of my childhood. Surprisingly, it wasn't weird at all. In fact, I love the house and it felt like home. I guess it's true when they say, "Home is Where the Heart Is."
He was kind of cranky and tired after traveling all day though!


We did lots of stuff while we were there.
We:
*Visited Great Grandma and Grandpa Smith. Not the biggest fan of Grandpa though!


*Took naps with Grandma

*Had fun with Aunt Kendra!

*Arm wrestled Grandpa

*Bonded with each other

*Played with new toys

*Got a bath in the sink

*Had sister time...which included eating a CRAP TON of junk food together. We even ate pizza at the mall and then went home and ate supper!

*Visited Valley View!

*And then had to say goodbye, and head home to see Daddy!
