Maya stayed at her first hotel this past weekend! She and I (no Kevin) drove down to Indianapolis for my cousin's baby shower. Nana and Grandpa drove over from Ohio, too, so they got to spend some time with Maya. Maya is such a good traveler - which I'm grateful for since it's a 4 hour trip and I didn't have Kevin as back-up! She slept most of the way down there...it was cute because she'd wake up for about 10 minutes, look around, realize that we were still in the car and nothing was going on, then would go back to sleep :) On the way back, she slept the first 3 hours, then was awake for the final stretch, but just played with her toys and looked around - not a peep! We only made one stop each way - for gas, no feedings - and she was perfectly happy when we made it to our destination! We are so lucky!!! :)
Anyway - she was a little ham at Amber's shower - kickin' around on the floor showing people her belly and smiling at everyone while Amber opened her pile of presents. She got to meet the rest of the cousins in Indy as well as Uncle Jim and Aunt Deb....here are the only 2 pictures I took at the shower (I got completely distracted and forgot to take more!):

Here's cousin Beth and Maya...

...and the Baby Mamma herself - Amber!
All in all, a good weekend was had by all...and I reinforced why Maya does not sleep in our room...loud little sleeper that she is! I didn't get much sleep with her next to my bed in the pack-n-play! She breathes loud, sighs a lot, talks to herself and kicks the side of her bed in her sleep! Silly little monkey!
You are so lucky. I couldn't take Ali to the lake house without having to stop!
