I just wanted to give a quick update as we're heading for Washington State tomorrow to visit my side of the family. This will be the first time I fly alone with the boys. The flight's about two hours and forty-five minutes long and let's hope it's an uneventful and very quick few hours. On one of our last flights Will cried for maybe an hour and finally passed out in Rick's arms in the galley at the back of the plane. We found out this week that Will needs tubes for his ears. His surgery's scheduled on the 25th of this month - hopefully his ears don't fail us now when I'm hoping for them to be on their best behavior.
I made a Target run and picked up small puzzles, a sticker book, a couple small monster trucks, planes and matchbox cars and I'm going to bring a slew of treats that would be on our no-go list for any other occasion. It'll be like we're celebrating a birthday in the friendly skies.
Nate's been a superstar toilet trainer. He hasn't had an accident for a few days and he's doing well at night. The last two mornings I've woken up to hearing him using the bathroom and his bed's been dry. Hallelujah! I can hardly believe we survived, and fairly unscathed. And here I nearly gave up at the start of it all, and remember? I even dropped my first two f bombs in front of the kids (not pretty). Now that seems long past and we're on the road heading for whatever hurdle decides to pop up next. Probably Will's bottle hitting the door. Sorry Will! I'll wait for after his tube surgery for that one.
We often ask Nate if he's cute and he always replies "no". This last couple times I've asked him if he's handsome and he's said "no", as well. When I ask what he is, he says "lucky". It's a very random and cute thing. I hope he is lucky because who wouldn't want to be that? Hopefully we'll have some of that luck on our flight tomorrow.
