Santa Fe Trip...well, kinda

Kris and I decided it would be a great idea to load our little family (dogs included) up in the Tahoe and travel to Santa Fe for Labor Day weekend. In theory, it was a good idea...however, since Kale has been feeling under the weather, it turned out to be a horrible idea.

We left Amarillo on Friday around 4. We got into Santa around 7 p.m. Kale was a bear, screaming nonstop, so we decided just to order pizza and hang out in the room, while he slept. The next day we set about sightseeing, shopping, eating, etc. . . but something still wasn't right with Kale. He was particularly fussy. We ended up stopping at Walgreens and buying a thermometer. He had a temperature, AGAIN! We decided at that point that we needed to head home. So, we arrived back in Amarillo about 24 hours after we left the previous day!

We have decided that we will wait a while before attempting to travel with a baby.

It's a good thing we have a big car. We were completely full between our family, the dogs, suitcases, stroller, pack-in-play, etc. The dogs are excellent travelers!


My sweet, sick boy. We went the doctor again today. We are there several times a week at this point. He still had a bit of an ear infection and is extremely congested, plus he has a cough. She prescribed more antibotics. (Let's hope he's not allergic to these!) Right now he has to sleep in the swing to keep him elevated, otherwise he can't breathe at all. He sounds horrible!  I really hope he gets better soon.

  1. Isn't it the worst having a sick baby? I hate it when they are congested! I feel for ya.
