Drive to STL

Unexpected post! Yea!!! We decided to pack up early and head out tonight opposed to leaving early in the morning. That way we could start the morning in St Louis, tackle the STL zoo and head out after lunch leaving around 5 hours left to get to Nashville. With 2 babies that deal sounded too good! The drive went well, lots of books, music, playing with babies and some good old care bears and sesame street for the last hour or so. Oh and Ashley had her pacifier so she was happy. For dinner, Arby's, my trael favorite!!! And the girls enjoyed the yogurt I brought along in a cooler and price chopper ham. Why they don't like fast food throws us for such a loop. I wish I ate like my girls; I'd be a toothpick! So I am happy to say that we are all checked into a good ole motel 6 and the babies are fast asleep which leaves us to hangout in the bathroom. Just kidding, we only did that for 30 minutes after we put them down. Which leads meto a thought, they are amazing at going to bed.... We are in 1 room and not a peep left their little bodies after we started the night night routine. In a crazy weird place, no problems. I love how easy these little girls make most things. I am also happy to report that we had absolutely dry panties, not even a piddle, the entire 4 hour trip and we even went poop when we were eating at Arby's. The other time we stopped to use the potty we asked Anna if she needed to go and she said no at first and then a minute later chaned her mind. Successful day, fingers crossed for just as good as one tomorrow in the car. Favorite quotes from the trip As I am opening the Tupperware full of candy..... Anna: "I smell someding mommy and daddy." No response, we are almost dying laughing we can't believe it Anna: "I smell sweets!" Since it was 830 and an hour past her bedtime the last thing the child needed was candy so we lied about the smell coming from outside. Even though she didn't believe us she eventually dropped it. Mommy: "yucky! What's that smell?" Anna: "daddy has to go poopy." This one had us laughing for quite sometime too! Much love, Jenny
