First Trip Out

Today all four of us Shipley's ventured out for our first family trip together.

It may not sound exciting to you, especially since we only went as far as Woodstock, but hey--small steps!

Mommy & Daddy in all the chaos kind of forgot it was the end of February, so we had to take mommy's car to be inspected. Oops. They couldn't get to it today, so we left it there and took the daddy car to get breakfast/lunch at Denny's.

Our meal I guess was Thomas' technical first outing, since he just sat in his carrier at the car place. I planned to leave him in his carrier the entire time at Denny's too and away from germs, but he got hungry just before time to leave, so I held him and fed him much to the entire restaurants pleasure.

After brunch we went to, where else, but Walmart. Now there is a place with way too many germs! So, Thomas and I sat in the car while Gracie and Daddy got a few things we needed. He even got a diaper change in the car, and I managed rather well if I do say so myself. I guess your first child really is the "practice baby!"

All in all it was a short, and non eventful afternoon about town, but it was our first and I couldn't help but make a big deal out of it :)
