Teaching my children to question authority, except mine.

A teaser

December27

I missed you all!  I’m tired.  We spent a little over 11 hours in the car today.  Sabrina started throwing up around hour 2.5 and didn’t stop until hour 8.  She has never been sick before and I felt awful that we had to keep strapping her back into her car seat.  And 9 hours in the car o’vomit wasn’t exactly lemony fresh.  But we made it home.  More about our holidays tomorrow but I had to throw up a few photos because I’m in blog withdrawal.

We made it to Primanti’s.  Ahhh…pastrami, cheese, cole slaw, fries, and hot sauce on italian bread.

I obviously had to drag Steve there kicking and screaming.

The most kid pleasing Christmas lights display we saw this holiday season:

Thanks to BurghBaby for directing me that way.

This was Sabrina about 20 minutes before The Great Puke of Aught Eight began:

We decided the official theme song for our trip home today was The Glamorous Life by Sheila E because is there anything more glamorous than cleaning up a puke covered 2 yr old in a McDonald’s parking lot?

My favorite bill board – “Tattoo Charlie’s…While you wait” in Louisville.

    Glad you are back. I have missed those babies–oh, and you.

    SO sorry about Sabrina. That is a long–and very smelly drive. Hope she is better today and you all don’t get it.

    Can’t wait for more details!!

    I’m so sorry about Sabrina – poor baby! I love that billboard and see it at least once a week. I hope you waved to me as you were passing through Louisville!! 🙂

    Poor Sabrina-that couldn’t have been fun for ANYONE. Hope you had a good time inbetween the puke fest.

    And LOVE the tattoo sign-as opposed to not waiting for your tattoo? Hmmmm….

    Can’t wait to see more pictures!

    That just plain doesn’t sound like a fun drive. Cleaning up puke is bad enough when it’s not in the car! Hope she’s feeling better. And more importanly, I hope nobody else gets it.

    YOu are such a brave woman! I wormed my way out of a trip to the inlaws, by begging off because a nine hour drive is too much for a 2yr old! And we dont have an infant on top of it. Sorry about the puking, it makes me cringe just to think about. Bet you’re glad to be back!

    I always laugh at that Tattoo CHarlie’s sign when we head up to Ohio.

    And the puke fest has been going on around here too. You have my sympathy.
