And so the journey begins. We took Julia on her first real trip this week, out to Iowa and Wisconsin to visit her grandfather and great-grandfather. It started out with two airplane rides (we had a layover in St. Louis), and Julia did very well. She almost didn't fuss at all. The day after we arrived in Iowa, we went to Wisconsin. We were glad for the chance to visit with Pop and Marge and of course, Julia was a hit. Then it was back in the car for ride to Iowa again. We did spend a lot of time traveling. Actually, we spent a day more than expected as our flights home were cancelled and we had to stay another night. But we didn't hear any complaints from Grampa and Grandma Cindy...who were excited to have one more night with baby. The airplane rides home were a little tougher on the little one...she had some trouble with her ears...and we think that teething has begun. Oh boy are we in trouble now.
After a whole day in airplanes and cars, Julia decided that the best way to travel was while sleeping. 
Julia with her Great Grampa. He was afraid to hold her, but she's a big girl now and didn't give him any trouble at all.
Here are the four generations on this side of the family.
We all had a good laugh at dinner when Dad dunked (well, actually drenched) his popcorn chicken in what he thought was french dressing. Turns out....holy crud....that was HOT SAUCE!!!
After a couple days spent traveling...Julia had baby funk and was in desperate need of a bath.
Here is Jason deciding what to eat at the cafe. Of course, this won't surprise those of you who know him well. He had french toast, eggs, bacon and toast. That's right....two kinds of toast in one meal!
Here is Julia with her Grampa at the cafe.
It's mini-me!!
Here is Mommy with Julia, but there seems to be some kind of rude, lippy farmer in the background! ;-)
Grandma Cindy was showing off the baby to all of the customers.
