While Matthew has always been an excellent little plane traveler, this was his 6th round trip but he is so much more active now and I was a bit worried that sitting still might be an issue. I purposely booked a flight that included a layover in Memphis so he could get out a run around a bit. It worked beautifully on the way there. He was happy to sit and read, open and close the window shade and eat about a pound of craisens on the first flight. He ran all over the Memphis airport and was out before the plane took off on the way to DFW...YAY for mommy!!!!
On the way home our first flight was delayed over an hour, so our hour layover in Memphis turned into me running through the airport with an 18-month old whose car seat stroller thing lost a wheel while racing down the moving sidewalk and flew past some older gentlemen who looked at me as if I had two heads as I raced by apologetically and made it to my gate as they were closing the doors to the jetbridge.....WHEW!! We made it and again, my little adventurer was fast asleep 10 minutes into the flight!!! We made it home safely and we were both so glad to see Willie at the airport. It is so true that it is good to be home.....no matter where home is.
We have reminisced about Texas but love where we are living, it is nice to go visit but we do enjoy coming home.
