I Might Actually Be Crazy

It's quite possible that Jason and I have lost our damn minds. 

Tonight after work we will be driving (yes, driving!) 922.05 miles to Colorado....

through the night....

with a three-month-old-baby.

We're doing this for three reasons...

1. My grandparents live in Colorado. 

My grandma has Parkinson's Disease which makes them unable to travel. I knew I wanted to take a trip to Colorado sometime in Kenley's first year so that they could meet her...and this week/weekend ended up being the perfect time. 

2. My cousins live in Colorado. 

My cousins Ben & Sara, who I absolutely adore, live in CO and I don't get to see them very often with everyone's crazy busy lives. SO, going to visit grandma & grandpa also means going to visit Ben & Sara. 

3. Arizona is playing Colorado...in Colorado.

Remember THIS POST on our major love for the Arizona basketball team? Well it was exactly 4 years ago this Valentine's Day that I surprised Jason and took him to the Arizona game in Tucson. When we found out that Arizona was playing Colorado, IN Colorado, on Valentine's Day we knew we had to go!

This trip is going to be so special. Not only will Jason and I get an amazing V-day together but getting to introduce Kenley to her great-grandparents, my cousins, and spend some time with my mom (who is flying in from Arizona to meet us) is going to mean so much. PLUS, we get to show my grandparents our wedding video! They weren't able to travel to MN for my wedding, so to be able to relive the day with them is going to be really, really special. 

Anyways...that's all fine and dandy...what's not fine and dandy is this drive. Kenley is a great sleeper and loves to sleep in the car, so I'm hoping that by some miracle she sleeps most of the way.
But you just never know...

Plus there's the topic of feeding her, burping her, and changing her which all means stopping, which also means the 12 hour drive could easily turn in to a 15 or 16 hour drive. 

Do any of you mamas have any advice for road-trippin' with a baby?

I need all the help I can get. 

WISH US LUCK!
