Campbell goes to the farm...

Campbell and I made her first of many trips to the farm to visit my mom. Campbell turned out to be a great traveler. I on the other hand, could not seem to get us on the right plane. We still have not figured out how I managed to watch our plane board and take off with out us! I am sure I was too caught up in playing with the baby.

Campbell was unfazed as I scrambled to find another flight and raced to the other end of the airport. It seems people are very understanding and helpful when you are carrying a hungry baby, pushing a stroller and on the verge of tears. They even let me on the plane first and carried my things! Campbell was fed and asleep before the plane took off. She did not even know she was on a plane.

While the weather was too cold for Campbell to officially meet any cows or horses she was able to spend some quality time with her Grandma, Grandpa Mike, and Aunt Nicole.

While at the farm Campbell turned into a marathon sleeper. I suspect my mom is the baby whisperer. Campbell was taking 4-5 hour naps during the day, and sleeping through the night. My mom also taught me a little trick of putting a blanket over the car seat and then putting the baby in it. This turned out to be life changing!! Campbell was very content to hang out in this new seat. Don't get me wrong, I really enjoy holding my baby, but sometimes you just have to put the baby down!!

My mom had found our old saddle that we used on our pony, Lady, when we were little. I was determined to get a picture of Campbell on it. Campbell seemed to disagree with my plan, I'm pretty sure she is waiting for the pony to be underneath it.

Our trip was extended because of snow in Portland. Campbell was unimpressed by her first snow storm. We arrived home to icy roads and snow everywhere. At least one member of our family is enjoying the snow:

Here is a picture of what our back yard looks like:
