Family Vacation Day 7: March 6th, 2020 Driving Home
We got off to a slow start today. Most of us woke up at 7:45 when baby was yelling at us that he wanted to eat. It took about two hours to gather up all of our stuff and load it into the van. I can never understand why it takes so long.
We got to breakfast at the hotel with about 20 minutes to eat. That is not nearly enough when you are at a buffet. We managed to eat a few things, made a pit stop and got on our way about 10:15. This is a bit later then I usually like but at least we aren’t driving clear home today.
About noon we stopped for gas and got pizza at Pizza Hut for lunch. The employee there was so helpful and friendly. It made me glad that we stopped there.
Around 3:00 we stopped for more gas and to feed Zyven. We were at Costco so we went inside to walk around a bit and stretch our legs. We very nearly forgot to change Zyven’s diaper before getting on our way again.
Upon our arrival in Cedar City at went straight to The Pizza Cart and ordered dinner. It was a 35 min. wait for pizza so we went and checked in to our hotel and unloaded the van. Brandon was sweet enough to go back out to pick up our food.
I gave Zyven a bath shortly after Brandon left and ended up getting baby wash on his face. I had poured some in my hand and when I went to set the bottle down it fell. I must have tipped my hand when I grabbed for the bottle because when I looked back at Zyven it was on his nose and around his mouth. Poor guy. I had to wipe him off really good and in his mouth a bit. He was gagging on the taste of it a bit. I felt so bad. It has been quite a long (but fun) week for all of us.
While we ate and got ready for bed we watched Madagascar 2. That movie is full of silliness. We finally got everyone settled about 9:30 and Aiden was the last kid to fall asleep about 10:00.
