Road tripping

We're almost done with our road trip accross America with a two week pit stop in Minnesota to wait for Daddy. The kids have been relatively well behaved! We're looking forward to a day off from driving to check out the Grand Canyon. 

A few things I've learned:

- When staying in a hotel, spring for the two room suite. Worth it!

- Try to keep nap time as normal as possible. We've 2-3 hour naps from the kids!

- Bring tons of food and then more. 

- The mini van with built in DVD/blue tooth head phones was the best investment ever. 

- Bring extra batteries for the head phones. 

- Don't stress about being the mom whose kid is running laps around Arby's- he must have run 25 and was as happy as can be. 

- Favorite kid food meals- Chik fil A, DQ and Arby's. All have milk and fruit and non fried food options. 

Choo choos!

Awesome rest stop in northern Texas!
