At 18 weeks old, Logan goes on his first road trip

Yesterday we packed up what seemed like the entire house & drove up to Fort Collins for the day. We wanted to visit the family & check out the town. That & they really wanted to baby sit Logan for us too.

The drive up is about an hour & a half. Logan was awesome. He didn't cry at all. He did get a little fussy when we made a pit stop at Starbucks, but as soon as we were driving again, he went right back to sleep.

When we got to the house, I fed Logan & we all went out to lunch. It was warm, so we decided to eat outside on the patio. Logan had a great time being passed around the table. I also let him taste my lemon. He didn't make a sour face (although I don't know if his taste buds recognize sour tastes yet) but he likes it! So far he has tasted pineapple juice, butter, strawberry, potato, pretzel & now lemon. He's only tasted these foods, but I don't think feeding him solids is ever going to be a problem. After we had some great food, we left to go drive around town & check out different neighborhoods.

Logan was entertained by chewing on his Aunts fingers, to which she proclaimed that she loved it & was never going to wash her hands again. We drove around some lake side neighborhoods & looked at some houses that are on the market. We stopped to go shopping for baby clothes & I bought Logan a couple of cute summer outfits that should keep him cool. While I was looking through the racks, I had him in his car seat on the floor. A little girl, about 2 years old, came up to see him in his seat. She said "Hi" & he gave her a big smile. He's such a flirt! It was too cute.

We went back to the house & Logan played with his Aunt & Uncle. He really loves them, especially his Uncle! He was all smiles (giving his Uncle the biggest smiles I've ever seen) & laughed so hard at them. It was so much fun. This was the first time Bill heard him laugh out loud & boy, did he get a show. Logan must think his family is the coolest.

Logan stayed back with the family while Bill & I went out for our anniversary dinner. We went out for sushi (a celebratory tradition, as it's my favorite food in the whole world) & walked around Old Town. This is our kind of place. There are boutique lined streets, great places to eat, organic co-ops & big green trees every where. We stopped to get some home made ice cream before going back to the house. We had such a great time & Logan was on his best behavior. This place is nothing like where we live now. Now I don't care about selling the house. I want to pack it up & move tomorrow.
