Recovering is hard

We had a great vacation, it was just long enough to relax and see everyone, and long enough to miss being home. I somehow even managed to read a book while there, so I feel like it was a real vacation. Summer was perfect, she had one cranky morning but I think it could have been itchy gum's, last night I felt her upper left molar with the right quickly following. Considering how cranky some babies get when teething I am truly a lucky mom because Summer has not been overly cranky, no fever, no rash, it could have been a lot worse. Anyway we had a fun time in Oklahoma, we ate out almost everyday, Summer had a lot of new foods and she did fine, we had several long car rides and Summer would always fall asleep, even without the pacifier. She slept long at night next to me in the pack and play and woke up each morning around 8:30 (which is 6:30 our time) so she stayed on schedule. She had so much fun playing at Frannies house, there was so many things to see and touch. She also had fun playing with her cousins, not so much Alex because they are still too little to interact but Jordyn loved playing with Summer, giving her hugs, brushing her hair, and Summer loved the attention. Summer was fun to be around, the only things she got into were some fake flowers Frannie had, she kept pulling them off, and the dogs water, which she managed to get and spill to morning before we left. She liked all the dogs, and one day stole a dog bone and had it in her mouth, we gave it back to the dog. She had fun with Grandma, one night there was a bad storm and her and Grandma stood on the front porch and watched the rain and lightning and listened to the thunder. I say bad storm because we were watching the weather and the tornado sirens went off. Apparently they went off because of high winds and not because a tornado but I was still crapping in my pants and took Summer into the hall near the bathroom. We went to Chickasha on Friday to meet two other moms from our online group and their children and took pictures. On Thursday we went to Wichita Falls and had lunch with Bobka. Saturday night was the reception for Charlie and Kali, and Summer was memorized when the music started to play and the disco lights came on. She almost started to dance but the other little girl that was out there dancing caught her attention and she preferred to watch. We ended up getting on 4 planes, 2 there and 2 back, and I could not be happier, she slept for most of the flights. On one plane she pooped as soon as we got on and everyone else was on and seated but I was able to take her back and quickly change her on the floor between the restrooms. The flight attendant said there was a changing area in the restroom but there was so much more room on the floor! On Sunday we returned and Daddy couldn't believe how much she had grown up, and Grampa was so happy to see her. Daddy gave her a bath and then took her into her room and she was so happy to see all of her toys that she took everything out and ran around. It was a great trip, we are back and all the laundry is done, things are back to normal and I have no more trips planned.
