So here's my predicament.
My husband has to go up to Northern Maine for work orientation this coming Monday and Tuesday (8 hours of orientation each day). It is a 3 1/2 hour drive both ways. If he stayed at home and drove it, this would mean he would have to get up at 2 or 3 every morning and drive up there and then drive home late at night just to go to sleep. I really don't want him to be driving so far on his own.
The problem is, I don't want to put Seth (who is 6 1/2 months old) through the stress of a long trip and a 2 night stay in a weird hotel. I have no clue how she will react to a hotel, and I'm also worried that she will freak out the whole time we are there and keep us awake.
On the other hand, if I leave her at home, she will get upset with me for not being home and pitch a fit when I get home. (I was gone for 8 hours for holiday shopping on Monday and she resorted to biting and thumping me several times the next day when I tried to pet her).
So, I feel like I'm in a lose-lose situation. I just want everyone to be happy, but I have no clue what to do.
