I told you ladies about the whole plane
ticket ordeal...BUT we can't afford it so
Shawn and his family have it in his head
that we're going to drive there to see
them....uhhhhh no one talked to me about
this until a few days ago? what? I am
Dallas mom for crying out loud..
I refuse to put him in his car seat for 8
hours in the middle of freakin winter,
we're supposed to be getting the snow from
iowa, wisconsin, wherever, how do I warm
his bottle, how do I keep it cool..and to
top it all off we will have to drive the
hatchback mustang OMG there is NO room in
there, we will have a drag sooooooo much
stuff out with us..why??
We were away a lot for christmas and he
was beyond grouchy and when we finally got
back into our normal routine yesterday he
has been so much happier, he missed being
home and I don't have the heart to take
him away until tuesday...
I don't know what to do

We always road trip at night. It's so
much easier on the children. Then when we
geet there I hand em over and say "I am
taking a nap. I just drove 12 hours all
night to bring them to you, nw i get to
sleep!"

family is important to me, so i'd go. 8
hours isn't even that long, he'd probably
sleep most of the way.

His family treats me like dirt though so
why waste 8 hours on them??
My car sucks in the snow and it's snowing
so nope not going, they can come here.
He's being childish about it and tells me
he is leaving me if I don't go so screw
it, I don't even care.
