Things to do while riding in a car...

Brandt is usually pretty good in the car, especially when he has something to entertain him. He loves to go places and knows multiple important landmarks along the way to wherever we're going. For example, on the way to Green Canyon, he knows where Joslyn's house is and which road goes to Van and Cindy's. He knows where to "get mail" and always begs to "go in" when we drive by. He knows where every cow, horse, tractor, and donkey is along the way to Montpelier, and always makes sure to point out "Mammon's house" (Ammon's house) and the choo-choo train.
A couple weeks ago when we went to town we stopped to get the mail first. He always gets a sucker there and opens it before we get back to the car. He tried to stay awake long enough to eat it, but was asleep before we got out of St. Charles. So cute! Love the crazy hat hair!
If he doesn't fall asleep, he usually comes up with some crazy thing to entertain himself. This particular day we were coming home from visiting my grandparents at the Manor and he was acting like a puppy (he does this a lot lately). He started out barking and panting and soon moved on to licking his legs.

As if that's not bad enough, he then worked his way to his nasty dirty feet (he'd been playing outside in water shoes all day).
He got a pretty big kick out of himself, and I had to agree that he was pretty funny, too.

  1. How cute! I have good car sleepers and so they are usually well rested when we get somewhere that is why we don't like to travel in the evenings because the kids won't go to bed!!
