kam's first plane trip

kam took her first plane trip this weekend to boston. sadly, it was for my nana's funeral. i brought her along because 1. she flew for free, 2. most of my relatives have not met her, and 3. she is having a tough time with the baby coming, the new house, and just being number 3!

she did soooo well on the plane ride there. we even had an extra seat so she could make herself at home and spread out! :)

she had so much fun meeting the family and really helped to lighten up the mood. it's tough to be too down when kam's walking around with her beaming smile! :) she was wonderful too! sooo well behaved. i tried to tell relatives that "no, she really is not like this at home!" but i know they don't believe me! she was an angel . .. of course it helps that she was the only kid with more than 15 people constantly paying attention to her! :)

it was so cool to see her with my pop-pop . . . bonding over m&m's! :) we had to hide the m&m's from both of them! :)

the plane ride home was another story . . . 4 hours on a plane with her on my lap and my growing belly was not so much fun! reaching down to the floor to get treats and treasures from our bag was a task! :) the guy next to us was not so kid friendly and sprawled out with his laptop and legs spread wide . . . can't say i was too sad to get off the plane! :)

with the cost of airfare and our growing family, plane trips will be a rarity! ha! it'd cost us $100 just to check the bags on the plane! :) hopefully we'll get mck up in the air soon so at least they can all say they've flown . . . :)
