On Monday, we leave the house around 5:00 pm, heading for Little Rock, Arkansas-a 3.5 hour drive. We have to be at the hospital around 8:00 in the morning Tuesday, so we decided to get settled into the hotel the night before.

Emma had a good ride down in her car seat, sleeping most of the way. Upon arrival, the key under the mat at our apartment was missing, but we eventually got in. Miriam found a great deal on the itnernet-a fully furnished 2-bedroom apartment for $60/night, and turns out it’s a really nice place-just like those appartments across from WalMart in Siloam Springs, but a little fancier (balconies and a golf course).
