The Penningtons: Happy Easter!

This Easter we headed out West to spend time with Aaron's family. It normally takes us about 6 hours to drive to Meade, KS, but with Whitney, we added about another hour. As with the Branson trip she did pretty great. I keep hearing that traveling with a newborn is actually easier, than with a toddler. We'll see about that.

We stopped half way in Wichita and ate lunch. I tried to feed her a bottle in the restaurant, but she was just not having it. Therefore, I went ahead and nursed in public. I don't know if it was my motherly instinct, or need to get her fed so we could get back on the road, but I whipped out the nursing cover, and Whitney and I got straight to business. She did a great job, and I didn't get too many looks from others. I always find it funny how nursing in public, especially restaurants, can be so controversial. I think it is funny, because all that babies are trying to do is eat, which is exactly what adults do in restaurants. Go figure.

We had a wonderful time in Meade. The weather was so warm. It nearly hit the 80s on Saturday, so we had lots of outdoors time. Whitney got to meet some new faces too. She met Great Grandpa Mike and Great Grandma Betty Hunt. She also met Great Grandma Wilma Pennington. In addition, Uncle Tony, Great Aunt Janice, Great Uncle Steve Wiens and many other Meade friends.

Easter Sunday, Whitney did an AWESOME job in church. She fussed when we first got there, becuase she had a wet diaper. Yes, I did change her right before we left, but she managed to get some more out on the car ride. During church she slept the entire time! Hallelujah! She was so cute in her Easter dress!
