Samantha got to meet a few members from her father's side of the family this weekend. She did great during the trip down south. We experienced our first difficult outing with her, though. Samantha decided to stay awake all day on Wednesday causing her to be overtired by 7:30 PM. While eating in a fairly nice restaurant she cried and cried. Joseph and I tag-teamed and walked with her around the parking lot. I nursed her in the bathroom and changed her VERY poopy diaper in the car (diapers were in the car). I believe we avoided making all of the other customers mad... maybe you'd hear differently if you asked them.
Samantha also met the McGowin's dogs, Klujo (yes, kLujo, with an "L", not Kujo, like in the movie), "White dog" (yes, he's white), and "freedom". I have the best mother-in-law ever, but I have no idea what she is thinking when she names her pets. (The cat is called "kee-kee and the 4th dog is called "da da"). Perhaps, she has just run out of names from all the various pets she's had... It's always great to see the extended McGowin family (and THEIR pack).
