RV Trip Tips

Tip #1: Velcro - Velcro your stuff down! If you have any small boxes that need to stay on the table, glue some velcro to the table and a strip to the box then put them together and they’ll stick like glue (or like velcro)!

Tip #2: Mighty Mugs - So, some people have a problem with spilling things. And sometimes there’s a big problem. So I recommend going on Amazon and and order a Mighty Mug. It’s a cup that can’t tip over. It’s awesome, right?

Tip #3:  Butter - We have found that when you open the fridge, butter falls out.  So.  Secure your butter!

Tip #4:  Fidget spinners - They will roll all over your floor if you don’t put them in a safe spot.

Tip #5:  Shoes - You should get some shoe hangers to put your shoes in so they don’t go tumbling all over the place.  Momma hates that.

Tip #6:  Turns - Go SLOW on turns.  Everything on the tables and couches fly everywhere if you don’t go slow on the turns.

Tip #7:  Doors - If you don’t completely close doors, it will creak open and slam the walls and then hit the doorway and on and on.

Tip #8:  Wifi - The rv doesn’t get wifi. So we recommend downloading books and movies for the drive.

Tip #9:  Chores - Chores are helpful.  Each kid has her own chore/station to do chores on.  Sweeping, wiping tables, drying dishes.  Parents wash dishes, and empty the weird poop thingy.  Dad cooks.


Tip #10:  Have fun!!

All your thoughts seem so simple but it really takes a real road trip to truly understand the effects of motion and gravity. Been there, done that. The worst for us was when Aunt Pat joined us on our RV trip to Lake Hemet. She placed a bowl of pasta in the fridge and did not secure the fridge door. We still have the visual of pasta on the floor less than 1/10th of a mile from home.

She was triple-dog-dared

I just know it!!! Emerson was triple-dog-dared by some older 18 month old punk who told her that "everyone was doing it" and she'd be cool if she did it also. That must be why she decided to use the jungle gym at school and do a no-hands-flying-trapeze-triple-gainor that landed her face first into the cedar chunks. This girl gives me fits!!! The fact that she never cried and the preschool teacher didn't see it happen was just icing on the cake and classic Emme... you can't turn away from her for a millisecond! And just for the sake of documentation, this picture was taken a good three hours after it happened. You should have seen her poor face when I picked her up at 4:00!

Addison likes... no, LOVES to look at pictures these days. I guess for my generation it was tons of pictures in albums that were always so much fun. For her generation (I think they're still being called the millennials, but I'm not sure if she's too young to fit into that group), she points at my computer whenever she realizes it's around and asks to see pictures. Her favorite is looking at pictures of other babies. I like to show her pictures from another blog of a family in our area that has just had quintuplets ! She thinks they are the cutest and could look at the pictures forever! Yesterday, Addison snuggled up into my lap and asked to look at babies. I decided to pull up pictures of her from when she was a baby and ask her who all of the people were with her in the pictures. She knew most all of them, mostly because we talk about our family in different pictures quite a bit. Unfortunately, she just refused to believe that the man in a few of the pictures ...
