This past weekend we made our first road trip as a family of 4(plus a dog!) with a new family vehicle! We put the new truck to the test with a trip to Shreveport loaded down with enough gear to stay for a month rather than 3 days! This trip proved how you change as a parent with baby number 2. As soon as we got to GranSan's house, Shawn and I stayed just long enough to unload the truck, give a rundown of the girls' schedules and borrow an overnight bag from GranSan and then we headed out to spend the night at Diamond Jack's Casino! We didn't leave Emerson overnight until she was over a year old! Braelyn wasn't even quite 5 weeks old! Shawn and I did a little shopping, then went to the casino to check in and do a little gambling. We ate dinner on the boardwalk at Buffalo Wild Wings and then went back to the casino. We had the best night's sleep we have had in as long as I can remember! The girls did great without us. Emerson got to have a slumber party on her new princess air matress in GranSan's room and Patsy was on Braelyn duty. On Sunday, we got to spend time with the whole Fielder crew which was great. Monday morning GranSan had to go in for surgery so I was able to take her to the hospital and stay with her until she got to her room while the girls had a morning with Daddy. She came through the surgery with flying colors and we all have our fingers crossed that she is going to feel much better now!
First time to have both GranSan's girls at the farm!

GranSan has to have a new toy for Em every trip...this trip was an Aqua Doodle.
Braelyn couldn't be left out of the new toy rule!
She was so excited about her new princess bed.
Braelyn loved snuggling with Patsy
Looks like Braelyn loves staying at GranSan's!
