We Made it

We got here in good time. We left earlier than planned so we could stop in Montgomery and eat at Panera Bread. Soo Good!!!

Then we left and Cade basically cried the entire time from Montgomery to Birmingham. He only stopped and feel asleep after John and I sang him Baby Beluga for 10 minutes. And of course then we got there.

Then we were about three blocks away from a hotel we were going to stop and and all a sudden a cop on a bike pulls in front of us at a stop light and blocked the lanes. We looked behind us and all we could see for miles were bikers. We waited about 10 minutes for a 9/11 Remembrance Ride to go through. We were so close! Then got to the hotel and learned that it was WAY to much. It was incredible. I about lost it. But we found another hotel only a few blocks away for cheaper. But they don't offer Internet in the room for free and only had double beds. So wasn't the best one we have stayed at yet. I think the first was the best.

Cade is now starting to self feed himself. We found some strawberry apple flavored puffs that he likes a bunch. Better than the banana ones. He does pretty well with them. Defiantly going to be a right harder this one.

I forget to tell everyone about what happened last night at dinner. They put us in the party room because the AL college games were on and we had kids and really didn't care to hear the dunks at the bar or other screaming. Well this guy comes in with a baby younger than Cade and a daughter, probably about 5. We notice he is the husband of a waitress. Anyways, we are all eating and sorta watching the games, because there happends to be tvs in there with us. All a sudden I here this older lady go "oh my God". I looked over and didn't see the car seat in the high chair anymore. So I stood up and saw the baby laying on the ground. The dad immediately picked him up and the baby started crying. I started to cry too, but I held it in. He walked his son around for a few minutes and he calmed down. But he never got the mom. But we were all upset and bothered by the baby falling so we left soon after. I just felt so bad for that dad. John later told me he saw the little girl kicking the bottom of the high chair tipping it over. Finally, John said he saw here go to far and that is when it fell. Sort of was like "why didn't you say anything?" John said he didn't because it wasn't his place. yikes.
