Evie's 1st Car Trip

We are leaving this evening for Evie's first trip out of Tallahassee! We're going to spend a couple of days in Apollo Beach (near Tampa) with Blake's parents and then head over to the Space Coast (Cape Canaveral) for some sightseeing. Blake won this trip back in May from Wachovia for being the best seller or something (I don't really understand his job!) so we only have to pay for our gas and breakfast and lunch. Evie is currently napping, so I should probably be packing, but I hate packing and I like blogging so here we are.

I'm growing increasingly tired of having to get up two to four times each night with Evie. She'll be eight weeks on Thursday, and I'm hoping she'll start doing some longer sleep stretches at night in the next week or so. Lately, the most she's been doing is 4/4.5 hours and often as little as 1/1.5. Either way, I don't have much choice in the matter. If she's up and crying and hungry, it is my job to take care of her and feed her. Sigh. Nobody said this parenting thing would be easy.
