Our baby had his first 6-hour stretch of sleep Thursday night and went from 10pm-4am! Afterwards he then wanted to play. By 8:30 I was exhausted and took a nap so we got a slow start on Friday. By the time Matt and I showered and packed and had lunch it was 3:30. We hit Friday afternoon Houston traffic and then had to stop to nurse so by the time we got to Lake Charles it was 8:30. Yes, it took us 5 hours to make a 2 hour trip. Lesson learned...pack a bottle.
We did make a pit stop at the state line to document baby's first trip to Louisiana.
We took all these pictures and then turned around and saw this sign:
If only Jase and Si from Duck Dynasty were there to save us.
Saturday the guys and Sara left at 4:30 for fishing so me, Stephanie, Mrs. Diana and the little boys had the day to ourselves. We had a nice breakfast at the hotel and had plenty of time to just stroll and people watch. Stephanie and Mason hit up the pool and lazy river while Mrs. Diana and I relaxed in front of the TV and met Aunt Edie at Chick-fil-A.
By the time the fishermen returned it was rainy and gloomy and perfect time for a nap.
After MUCH debate we went out to eat for dinner and I had the most delicious po-boy sandwich. Monkey man slept through dinner on Nana's lap.
Family pic!
Once we got back to the hotel Nana and PawPaw babysat while Sara, Randy, Matt and I hit the casino. I lost $20, Matt won $0.01 and Randy won big playing roulette. Later that night (or early the next morning) Mrs. Diana won big on the penny slots.
Good news...the return trip only took us 3 hours!
