The Flight – I was not nearly as freaked out as I was when I flew with Savannah back in March. However, I had no idea how she was going to react to sitting in aluminum tube for four hours now that she is more wiggly. I spent what turned out to be the best $150 dollars of my life and got her her own seat. I highly recommend it.
I wish I had a picture of all of the stuff I was carrying. I had this cool backpack that went around her carseat so I could carry it ‘hands-free’, her diaper bag, another bag filled with toys and food, her stroller and 21 pounds of baby.
She LOVED the airport. There was so much to see and people were running around and everybody was waving at her – it was baby heaven. We sat on the ground and pulled everything out of my bag and by the time we got it all back in, it was time to board.
It was time for her afternoon nap by the time the plane took off, but she was far too excited to sleep, so we played for the duration of the flight. She was wonderful. Thank goodness for tailwinds, as we made it in a little over three hours. By the end of the flight, I was running out of fresh ideas to keep her occupied.
Grandma and Grandpa met us at baggage claim and we went home and she fell asleep immediately.
THEN the next day we went to the park!
