Our Big Trip

Well, this is where we started. The Fort Lauderdale Airport. We got to the airport in plenty of time, at least for this leg. We started the trip with 4 bags and 2 car seats in the checked lugage and just Ruston's diaper bag as a carry on. We debated on the stroller and decieded it would probably be a good idea. A decision that proved correct. Ani was excited about getting on the plane. I was anxious about Ruston on the plane. You never want to be that mom with the baby the screams the entire flight. We had two flights to get us to Little Rock and both of the kids did GREAT! We were a little worried. Ani couldn't wait to get into the sky. The plane started to go down the run way and she laughed and smiled. As soon as we got into the air there was a little turbulance. Ani said, "I don't want to fly anymore!" Virgel and I just looked at each other and thought oh boy. But a couple of minutes later she was fine and watched a movie. Ruston fell asleep before take off and slept most of the flight. Yeah! The second leg Ani slept. We were delayed on the ground - after we boarded the plane - for about 45 minutes. It seemed a lot longer. We finally made it to Little Rock and Virgel's mom was there waiting. One flight down, two more to go. . . Posted by Picasa

You're so lucky! When I flew out here with the kids in February I picked overnight flights because I thought the kids would sleep. I thought wrong! Ella slept maybe two hours all night, and Bradley - none. Lesson learned - when we fly to Orlando in December - non-stop daytime flight (thank goodness for Southwest!).

The pics are great and it looks like you guys had an awesome trip!
