Hello again, writing to you from our hotel room in Yreka, CA. 

What. A. Whirlwind.

Yesterday we were frantically clearing out our apartment and tetris-packing our cars, today we're nearly 500 miles from Seattle.  Needless to say, we're tired.  Our cats, however, are probably going to be chalk-full of energy all night long as they slept like, 10 hours straight today.  They're so lazy. 

We didn't leave Seattle until 10:00am today.  Not that we slept in, we were up before 6:30.  That's just how long it took us to get ready.  As you might guess, we're still working on being efficient parents (is that a real thing?).  We missed Seattle traffic but hit a little in Tacoma and then Portland really slowed down.  The rest of the drive was fairly easy.

Quentin did surprisingly well in the car today, he's such a little trooper!  He only had two big crying fits while we were driving, and otherwise he slept or was trying to make me laugh.  He is such a jokester (much like his Dada, albeit less puns).  I will say thank you universe--aka Amazon--for Creative Galaxy.  That show came in clutch when we were 30 miles out from Yreka and Q decided he was going to lose his shit.  Yes, our newly 7-month-old watches TV sometimes.  For shame!  *insert eyeroll here* 

Oh by the way Q is 7-months-old today.  I know.  It's weird.  We asked him to remain a baby forever but I'm not sure he took us very seriously.

We had to make extra stops on the drive of course, so it only took oh, an extra 3 hours to get to our hotel.  Also we fed Quentin his first bites of french fry and then he immediately spit them up.  He's so healthy.
