We Made it Home

Well, we made it home from Ohio (and just in time - they just got pounded with about 20 inches of snow). All-in-all the flight home was okay. It was a LONG day for everyone. Our total travel time was about 8 hours. We were lucky enough to get to sit by a very large man on one of our flights who didn't think that trying to handle a five-month-old and a two-year-old by myself was that difficult. Otherwise I'm sure he would not have helped himself to my tray table by setting his coffee and work papers on it. He must have been legally blind also because he surely would have moved his stuff when he saw me trying to get the backpack of Kyles toys up and around the tray with my foot, and at the same time trying to keep Brooklyn asleep on my lap. That flight felt like 3 days (it was about 3 hours). I really should have said something to this inconsiderate man, but I was so angry that if I opened my mouth they probably would have had to make an emergency landing to escort the crazy woman and her two hysterical children off the plane. But really, looking back I have no idea why I didn't make that man move his stuff. Since we've been home Kyle has been asking to play with his cousin, Jansen. They sure had a good time together! I made a slide show of the two of them playing together.

I can't believe how inconsiderate that guy was. He's probably from New York!!! I'm glad you're home safe. I LOVE how your blog looks!

Your story is hilarious- although I'm sure you didn't think it was very funny at the time- Ryan and I are cracking up over the way you told it. You're a brave woman to travel so far by yourself with two kids. I'm glad you made it back safely though. Ryan said to tell Christian that he's going to return his call from 3 weeks ago- he promises it will happen this weekend:). luv you guys!! by the way your kids get cuter everyday- Kyle is such a little stud.
