Gardner's first road trip.....yeah!!!
We are about to go wake up a groggy Gardner and put him in the car to hike 4 hours away to Greensboro, NC for a friend's wedding-festivity weekend. This is Gardner's first time away from home overnight, first hotel stay, everything. I hope he adjusts to the change well. We're trying to take many of the comforts of home with us so he won't feel too out of sorts! There's nothing that a little bit of Tad Bit "blanket buddy" and a nature sounds machine can't fix. :)
Gardner is now eating Cheerios, Gerber fruit/veggie puffs, and even small bits of bananas and peaches (although the texture of the last two make him squirm and shiver!). Still no more teeth erupting yet, but I expect a 2nd one any time now.
He is also on the very verge of actual crawling. He turns over the idea in his mind, you can tell, when he sees something of interest on the opposite side of the room. Most of the time, he'd rather go the easier route and just roll over to it, like a kid rolling down a big, grassy hill (I know, cause I used to roll down grassy hills myself). Every once in a while, though, we'll see him on all fours, deliberately putting one knee forward, but unable to make the other one follow suit. It's quite cute.
