Connor and I drove to NJ yesterday for a long Labor Day weekend with my mom, sister, nieces, and Aunt. We left Chantilly around 3pm and didn't arrive until almost 8:30pm. Dismal. Connor was FANTASTIC in the rental minivan with no DVD. He did Kumon mazes and letter cards, listened to music with me, and played L-Max for only a little while. Two or three times he asked me, "Mom, am I being really good?" Wow.
This morning we were talking to Nana about the long car ride up here when Connor walked in front of her, looked her in the eyes, and earnestly said, "Nana, we took the LONG CUT."
Went to Aunt Marilyn's pool today where I had to spend 30 minutes convincing Neurotic Nana to let go of those little girls in the shallow end of the pool when they are WEARING FLOATIES!! Apparently, they are both still clung to like infants. At one point, Elise got a taste of freedom and said, "Nana, LET GO OF ME!!!!" They are both water bugs and they loved it. Even more, they loved using my lap and legs as a waterslide.
