Car Conversations

Gatlinburg Bound!

This past weekend, our little family went to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge, Tennessee!

This would be trip #2 for Waverly. She did wonderful traveling!

She started out with a good, long nap!

She slept for the first 2 hours into our trip!

At lunch time, we stopped somewhere along the route and had Dairy Queen.

Waverly decided that she really liked Daddy's ice cream, especially the fudge!

She was so excited she would shake in anticipation of the next bite!

Back on the road again, it was time for some entertainment!

Waverly sang Mommy and Daddy some songs, basically consisting of her favorite word "baby".

Then we had a snack!
We colored and read books. To pass the time, Mommy and Waverly played "Can you say...". This is a typical game we play when riding in the car. It goes something like this:

Mommy: "Can you say... apple?"

Waverly: "App - ppple."

Mommy: "Can you say... Mom?"

Waverly: "Mum!"

Mommy: "Can you say...Dad?"

Waverly: "Dad!"

Mommy: "Can you say... Abby (Nana Pam's puppy)?"

Waverly: "Abb-a" (said proudly, since this is a new word)

Mommy: "Can you say...socks?"

Waverly: "Shocks!"

Mommy: "Can you say...shoes?"

Waverly: "Shoes!"

Mommy: "Can you say... Crissy (our puppy)?"

Waverly: "Hi, Baby!"

We really enjoy this game! Every time I try to sneak a new word in, Waverly catches me!
After our games, it was time to play with toys. Instead of drinking her milk, Waverly shared with her baby.

With all the fun, it wasn't long and we were there! Yay! Let the vacation begin!
