Well, this morning is back to real life for us! Thankfully the kids were amazing travelers yesterday like usual, so things went well through a very long day of traveling solo with them both. That completed Stella’s 8th trip and Harvey’s 2nd, so they have 32 and 8 flights under their belts respectively. It’s pretty amazing! Stella now walks down the aisle of the airplane by herself, stows her backpack under the seat in front of her, hops up onto her seat, and buckles herself up while I get the diaper bag, carry on bag, and Harvey situated. Fantastic. 🙂
Love my little travelers!
Stella’s looking different lately, growing up. Glad it went smoothly!
We always take a car seat for Matthew, which makes going by myself almost impossible. I’m thinking it’s time to ditch the car seat! I always tell B it would be easy for me to meet him in Seattle with the boys if I didn’t have to lug that damn seat! Consider me converted!
Ya, it is WAY easier to check the car seats if you need to bring them instead of renting/borrowing on the other end. We checked both kids’ car seats this time. Here is the MACPS statement regarding the safety of checking seats if you’re interested – http://www.saferidenews.com/srndnn/LinkClick.aspx?fileticket=zNnkSQCE0ks%3D&tabid=352
Stella is a pro! What a blessing that they love to travel, and are good at it, just like their parents.
Glad your trip went so well! I am taking Charlotte on her first flight next month- I hope she’s as great a traveler as your kiddos!
