I need a vacation from our vacation....

We just got back from Phoenix for my cousin Andrea's wedding.  I am mentally and physically exhausted.  I can honestly say that there is very little of the trip that I enjoyed.  I hate to be so negative, but travelling with a 15 month old who hates to sit still is a lot of work.  The plane ride to Phoenix was a nightmare...Lola screamed and cried almost the whole time, she just wouldn't fall asleep even though she was so tired.  The wedding was on Friday night.  Ryan had to take her away from the ceremony because she didn't want to sit on our laps and instead screamed to get down.  We weren't able to enjoy the reception because we had to watch her.  Then we went to my aunt and uncle's house on Saturday, and all Lola wanted to do was run towards the pool and towards the plants with thorns.  It was non-stop chasing her.  I was trying to catch up with my cousins but every time we would start to have a converstaion, I would have to get up and grab her.   I really wanted to have drinks with my parents and my brother and his fiancee on Saturday night, but Lola had to go to bed and once we put her down in the hotel room we had to stay in there.  So that was our 'vacation'... Thursday through Sunday of non-stop child chasing and sitting in our hotel bed waiting for her to wake up from a nap so we could leave the room.  At least she slept on the plane ride home!  :)
