Nashville trip

This weekend I thought it would be fun to take Ellie on a little trip. We went to Nashville, IN and Brown County State Park. Although we had a good time, things did not quite go as planned. My main goal for this trip was to get a good fall picture of Ellie so that we could make so wallets for family. So I got Ellie dressed in her cute fall outfit and we set out. Our first stop was to Nashville for a little browsing, dinner, and hopefully a good photo op. Here is where things began to go awry. First of all, don't go to Brown county in the fall. It is beautiful, yes. But everyone and their brother has the same idea. There were sooo many people! So much traffic and people packed onto the sidewalks. However, we forged on. For some reason, I didn't think about the logistics of getting a baby in a stroller around in crowds and in and out of little shops. This was just not doable. So Tyler stayed with Ellie while I went in and out of a couple of shops. About this time we decided that dinner here was out of the question. We decided to go to a candy shop--(we needed some chocolate), look for a spot for a picture and head to the park. While Tyler was in the candy shop I decided to hold Ellie for awhile. I picked her up and I was surprised when my hand felt a soaking wet bootie! Now, we have not had a diaper leak and many months, so this was very unexpected. Not only did she leak through her diaper, but her onesie, pants, and stroller were all wet! To make matters worse, I didn't have anymore pants! I always bring extra clothes. But for some reason, I didn't that day! I had shorts, but it was much too cold for shorts. So, I changed her and just wrapped her pantless self in a blanket and we headed for the car! Needless to say, our perfect fall picture in her cute outfit just wasn't happening! We decided to go on to the park and just look around a bit. We went to a couple lookouts, but because Ellie was without pants, and we really needed gas...our trip was cut short. However, after a trip to Target for some new pants, we had a pleasant dinner at Red Lobster. Here are some pictures from our eventful trip:
