Knowing it was a 20 hour drive, without counting the bathroom breaks needed for a pregnant woman, we knew the drive should be broken up on the way out to allow me to survive the week.
Day 1- We left Saturday afternoon and drove about 5 1/2 hours to Midland, TX. Our hotel accomadations at LaQuinta were interesting....
Madison loved wearing her "Tinks" (Tinkerbell sunglasses) during our drive. Day 2- Leaving the Great State and heading into New Mexico and Arizona
We quickly ate breakfast and hoped into the minivan. It was going to be at least a 10 hour drive to Phoenix, AZ. I was excited to know that we would be sleeping in a home and seeing family by the end of the day.
Getting closer....
Zachary, not Madison, took regular naps during our driving days. So cute wrapped in his favorite blanket.
Madison loved "reading" from the US atlas map book. We are very thankful to some friends that let us borrow their GPS and saved me from buying an ink cartridge.
Phoenix, AZ was are stopping spot for Day 2. Zachary and Madison were so excited to see their cousins!

Are you coming to visit me for part of your Cali trip?
What fun! You are a brave Momma to take that drive at 33 weeks. Ugh! :) LOVE the pic of Madison with the map ... that is SO Austin. He insists on holding the map during the whole drive. HOWEVER, the map is not the entire size of his body. Where on earth did you get that thing? :)
It was fun to see you! We are glad we could share some of your busy trip with you. The kiddos enjoyed some family time, as we did too. Glad you made it!
