Next weekend we'll be traveling, so I'm not making any promises for getting right back on track…
Mikko is super excited about our road trip. We're driving to California for a family wedding. We'll see how two kiddos do in the car for so long, but I'm excited about it in general. Any tips to pass along? Places to stop between Seattle and San Francisco? Car-ride distractions? Hotel-living advice? Ideas for cloth diapering and ECing on the run?
Since I couldn't get into Natural Parents Network last week (server hiccup), I've decided to devote the space to catching you up on what's been going on at NPN!

(The last set I stole from Anktangle, because I wasn't able to grab them myself! If you look at the slide in her post, it's the first one Mikko went down as well at about that age, in our nearby playground. Or maybe he was older. He's not that athletically inclined, heh heh. I remember being just as excited, too!)

Lauren, did you see my recent post about traveling with kids? It is aimed at car travel - not sure if that is the route you are taking.
