5 on friday | the how to survive a road trip with a 2 year old

Friday, March 19th, 2010

So this week we are in Wisconsin to celebrate Indie’s 1st birthday! Lena and I roadtripped it up with the nana and pops. Yep, we drove the 12 or so hours. With a 2 year old. And had a great time! Thought I would do this weeks 5 on a little roadtrip recap.

1. Nailpolish to a little girl is the world. And Lena is no different. She loves it and thinks she is the next best thing since sliced bread. So I brought some as my secret weapon for when boredom hit in. About half way through Indiana we broke it out and had quite the fun time painting our fingernails.

2. Oh, Yo Gabba Gabba! I am sitting here writing this only because she is watching it on the dvd player and entranced with it. In fact, she just stood up to dance along. So cute! Love me some Gabba Gabba!

3. Aside from her new penguin from Target the other new obsession is grapes. She LOVES them! And every time we see a store gets excited about grapes and chocolate milk. So I packed up a cooler of juice, grapes, and strawberries. Those grapes were gone by the end of the trip:)

4. Next on the list of obsession is buses. I’m talking screaming “there’s a bus” every time we see one! Loves them, especially the little buses:) She says “someday I want to ride on a bus”. We stopped in Janesville, Wisconsin to hit up the Super Kmart on the last part of our trip and the bus stopped in front to let people off. Well, you would have thought she was in heaven. Hilarious! So the better part of the trip was looking out at the window for buses and exclaiming “pinwheels” at the site of the windmills:)

5. Starbucks. Lets just say that the traveling prayer in the morning was “Lord, bring us a starbucks” :)
