We came up with a fun little side trip through St. Louis on the way home from the Ozarks today. We had plans to visit the Children's Museum and pick up a Christmas gift at the Cardinals Clubhouse store, but as we approached St. Louis, Deane fell asleep. We made a quick decision to bypass and let him sleep...which he did for about 45 minutes...total. Our 5.5 hour trip ended up being 6.5 hours which was supposed to be broken up with a little "city vacation".
It was a scene that fortunately only Chris had the pleasure of viewing with me sitting between the carseats nursing Kate (she was still in her seat; there's a mental picture) and rubbing Deane's feet so he didn't continue to say "Ma!" every other minute to get some reaction. We got home...I unpacked, Chris did a little work...and now we relax, catch up on the DVR, drink a little wine by the Christmas tree light and we pray for sleeping children for the next several hours.
