Springbreak Adventures in PA

So for part of Spring Break I headed up to my mother's house in PA for 3 days.  PC hasn't seen her Granna since Christmas, which was months ago(obviously). Actually she hasn't seen either grandparent since then.  It's hard with people working.....hopefully everyone will come and visit this spring! Hint Hint!

I'm not a fan of driving, but the hubs let me use his nice new Ford Escape, more room for all the "stuff" and safer/better gas mileage.

PC had a little bit of a rough go sleeping there.  She was in the pack n play and it just wasn't "home." I can totally relate to that too!  She looks a little perturbed that she had to wake up. Like the emo hair?!

We ended up going to Longwood Gardens on Monday, it was warm and sunny. Unfortunately, Spring hasn't officially come to PA yet, it's crazy, we are only two hours apart and yet our trees are blooming and flowers are bursting out, PA is a little behind. So....Longwood will explode in a few weeks, but isn't quite there yet.

PC did sooo well. She is quite a trooper.  So content to ride in the car(most of the time) and enjoyed being pushed around, taken out of her stroller and plopped on the ground for photographs. I mean, who could resist this face? At this point PC is not on the go, so having her just sit for pictures works out pretty well. Hopefully she doesn't become mobile for a little bit longer. I have lots of places around DC that I want to take pics.

The flowers were in bloom in doors! Yay!

Later that day PC experienced her first ride in a shopping cart.  She looks very unimpressed. She just slung that leg up. (Ooops bad parent moment, she wasn't buckled, but we weren't racing around the store)

 PC tried on her new bathing suit and hat for Granna. She can't wait to try this out at the pool this summer!

 Tuesday, we went to the mall, I had to try this weird little hat on her. I don't know if it was supposed to resemble an old swimming cap? I don't think that she was a fan.

 We also saw the Easter Bunny, doesn't he look wise with his glasses? Again, my unimpressed daughter, but at least she wasn't screaming her head off like some little ones!

Went to lunch at a "fancy" place. They brought out a whole little dish of cut up avocado for PC. She sat at the table like a big girl, well until mommy's lunch came.

 PC was a happy little girl on the way home, with her new bunny! Somebunny is happy;-)

 Heading home to DC, Can't wait to see Daddy!
