Colonial Williamsburg


We took a trip to Colonial Williamsburg yesterday. It was a much needed outing and we really enjoyed it. I had to stop the car a bunch of times on the way there and on the way back but we made it.

She really enjoyed being outside and it was a beautiful day to be out. It has
been so hot lately that the 85 or so degree weather felt so nice. We meet my Dad and Annie for dinner at Food for Thought and Emily actually let me eat!

On the way home we had a little bit of a scare though. She started ch
oking. It had been 3.5 to 4 hours since she had eaten and should have been fine, but she was choking. I slammed on the brakes and pulled to the side of the road. (Luckily we were on Route 60 instead of Interstate 64.) I got around the car to her in time to see clear liquid squirt out of her mouth and nose. Nothing has ever come out of her nose before and nothing coming out of her has ever been clear. She was still choking so I got her out of her car seat and had to hit her on the back to clear out her throat. Then she started screaming. The episode seemed to have hurt her throat or nose or both. It took a while to calm her back down, but she was ok.

When we got home the bib she was wearing was soaked through and the onesie underneath was very wet as well. I was very glad to be home. We had had a good time but not a good car ride.
