Six weeks old and trip to Dallas

Saturday Hannah was 6 weeks old! Since I kept her inside for 6 weeks, we decided to celebrate our new found freedom by taking a road trip to Dallas. Actually, we went to Dallas to celebrate my Grandmother's 84th birthday. My family is spread out from coast to coast literally with family in Oregan, New York, and Florida. The family meets yearly in Dallas to celebrate Grandma's birthdays. This year everyone came and Hannah was able to meet 3 Great Aunts and 3 Great Uncles, 6 of her 2nd cousins plus 3 of their significant others, and she was able to see Aunt Susie and meet her boyfriend Jason. Hannah did great being passed around for everyone to see and touch. She also did great on the drive there and back. My mom drove with me and Hannah there on Friday. Although she did great and slept the majority of the time, a five hour drive turned into a seven hour drive because we stopped twice to feed and change, each taking about an hour. The ride back took just as long but was easier because Stuart drove and I was able to feed Hannah a bottle in the backseat. This being one of my first experiences even taking Hannah out was a little bit much for me. I was exhausted!

Saturday was also Hannah's first trip to Nieman Marcus (my favorite lunch place!). We also did some shopping at the mall. Hannah was wide eyed and look around at everything. It amazes me at how many people stop to comment on her!

I will post pictures of the weekend as soon as someone sends me some that I can post. I didn't have a chance to take any. It was a wonderful weekend seeing everyone and I can't wait to do it again next year when Hannah will be walking! :)
