Randoms from the road

Warming bottles ;) Feeding the babes was challenging on the road but luckily no one went hungry. I fed them in their seats once, a few times we found a restaurant to take over and the other times we did it right before leaving or the minute we arrived to a hotel. It was chaotic to say the least. It was the 1st time the trips went into a restaurant though, we all ate with our free hand :)



The boys got some swim time in Coeur d'Alene. It was short lived as Brody's sensitive skin (ever since he was sick??) broke out in hives and the trips about overheated lounging poolside due to the humidity.

I must have been too tired to take pics in Bozeman and too scared to take pics in Miles City! We had a nice hotel room in Bozeman that had a big restaurant, casino and lounge downstairs, but no one enjoyed it. We sat, depressed, catching up on facebook of the tragedy unfolding back home. It was a somber night. The next night we got to Miles City and everything was booked except for a Motel 6. Within 20 minutes Mel and I decided that we would keep on driving into the night until we got to Bismarck! It was worth it, we loved waking up at the Oase's Saturday morning and only being 106 miles from Minot.

Getting closer to Minot! It had been so long since Ben and I drove on these roads, it still feels like we are on vacation and will be returning to Oregon any day now. I suppose that feeling will change once Ben starts working and I am faced with the REAL reality of being a trips mom, YIKES!!!

Diaper change line up

Home at the Waind's, Ben had 2 sleeping on his chest while sharing a beer with a good friend who came to visit!

The only "flood" picture I have taken so far. This is right by the storage are we had to pull all of my Mom's stuff out of 2 feet of water. This city is crazy right now, to say the least.

Kara and her mom came to help hold some babies!

We love you Oregon!!



Brody is happy to be "home" with so much family around!
