Trip to Springfield

Roman, Matt and I drove to Springfield last Saturday morning so I could go to my friend, Sarah's, baby shower. We actually drove to Tulsa on Friday night and stayed with his parents to break up the trip. Roman has had a great adventure! He got to see his cousins, the triplets, on Friday night. They LOVE Roman! They would crawl in their daddy's lap saying, "I'm baby Roman!" It was so cute!!

Sarah's shower was a great time!! It was so good to see everyone!! Roman was up literally all night long the night before so Matt and I were exhausted!!! I had 2 Starbucks trips on the way. Probably not good for nursing!! Mamma's gotta do what she needs to do to manage!!

Matt flew out of Springfield to work on Monday and stayed with my mom all week. We have had a great time!! My mom watches my niece, Catherine, everyday so it's been adventurous having Roman, Catherine, and of course Captain. The main little set back is that Catherine is terrified of Captain. Poor Roman doesn't know any better when Captain licks his little ears!

We went on a long walk in the park. It was so great!!!

We drove to see my grandmother in Arkansas one afternoon. It is so sad because she has Alzheimer's and had to be put in a nursing home. She doesn't know who we are, but I really wanted Roman to have a picture with his great grandmother. On the way there, my mom and I stopped in Branson. She wanted to show me the new Branson landing with a lot of shops. We enjoyed ice cream while watching a little water show.
