Mentioning Mimi and Papa and Grandpa

We have a slight problem - it's called a Mimi and Papa and Grandpa addiction. Here's the deal - we are headed to Charleston for a weekend with my parents (Mimi and Papa) and a Sunday with Lee's dad (Grandpa) at his new place. We can't wait to hand Jack off to the grandparents and watch some much anticipated football. I was having a hard time getting Jackson to settle down and get ready for a nap today so I mentioned that when he woke up he would get to go see Mimi and Papa so he needed to take a nap right now. That got his attention and he went right to his crib but now he is just sitting in his crib yelling "Mimi!! Papa!! Bapa!!! Mimi!! Papa!! Bapa!!". I guess he thinks that they are here now - boy is he in for a letdown. We still have a 2 1/2 hour drive - I'm praying for a nap so that our ride will be that much more enjoyable. Remind me not to mention the grandparents until we are 5 minutes away, please.

We have that exact same problem. I had to learn to not tell him until it was right before we were going to see them or else Caleb would bug me to death and then get upset because we were there to see them yet.

Hope he took a good nap!!!!
