Bowling in Arizona!

The TCU Horned Frogs were invited to the BCS bowl game, The Fiesta Bowl, in Phoenix, AZ.

We flew out on the 29th for 8 days, 7 nights....that's a loooong time to be gone with a baby! Each of our bags weighed just at 50 pounds! That's a lot of stuff to take!

Before we left, Cal had a little sniffle, but we didn't think much of it. Also, I should note, on the 26th, Cal slept through the night (I got wayyy more excited than I should have....it hasn't happened since!).

We made it out there fine, wish I could say the same for Eddie's bag.... we were delayed leaving DC, so we didn't get in to AZ until 11:45, AZ time, which was 1:45 am our time. We were pretty dead. Cal slept a lot on the plane, so he thought it was time to play when we got to our room!


Poor Cal...his snotty nose turned into quite the cough and one day he was just full on under the weather. We had the team doctor check him out, and he thought everything sounded fine to him. I was worried sick, of course! It's hard to have a sick baby and be away from home! We are buds with our pediatrician so I called her on her cell phone (!!! I am THAT mom!) and she was great-- told me to give him some baby tylenol and that really seemed to help him. We went into see her when we got back and it turns out he has a chest filled with "crap" and an ear infection. Poor little man.....

It was a great trip out there and we spent some quality time with Eddie's family. We even got a picture with 4 generations of Calvin Edwin Williamsons.... it was pretty special. The outcome of the game was a bummer, but the trip itself was fun.
Me, Eddie and Cal in our matching O-Line t shirts and Cal with his jersey. I love this one :)
