Hanging out on the plane.... he was SOOO good... Thank Goodness!
My very old kitty, Roger, still getting into shopping bags when no one is looking!
Happy Baby...
GranDonna and Ben
Ok, so here's how the trip to and from DFW went....
We were scheduled to leave Houston, Saturday at 11:20, after many, many delays from the weather, mechanical problems, etc, etc, etc... we FINALLY left Houston at 6:00PM and made it to DFW at about 6:45-7:00PM. It was a long exhausting day, but we made it and we were safe. No hard feelings. My wonderful baby boy was SOOOOOO good. He didn't make a peep in the airport or on the plane. I am so grateful to have such a good baby!
We had a wonderful visit. Unfortunately Pops had to work A TON while we were there and we didn't get to see him as much as we wanted to, but at least we got to spend some time with him. We spent Sunday, Monday and Tuesday shopping, hanging out, eating, watching movies and all kinds of fun stuff. It was a great trip. Thank you so much GranDonna and Pops!
Wednesday we were scheduled to leave DFW at 1:30.....let's just say it was a nightmare. My baby was still awesome despite the drama! We were hurried on the plane so that we could take off and quickly get to Houston in between storms. We sat on the plane for roughly 40 minutes with no A/C. They kept telling us there was a "small mechanical issue" that would be fixed in 15 minutes or less. Then they came back on the speaker and said that it would probaly take an hour to "replace a switch" and to deplane. They also said they would not be getting "valet checked" items from under the plane. So great, no stroller for Mr. Ben in the airport. On the way back out of the plane, poor Ben spit up all over me from being tossled around so much. Poor Guy!! Then, sitting at the gate... in the floor non-the-less... they came over and said the flight was cancelled with no chance to make it to Houston that day and to reschedule. Then they came over the loud speaker and announced that we needed to get all "valet checked" items "NOW" (as if they were going to take the plane away along with all those items. It was crazy. After a few choice phrases and a panicked call to my Momma we got a refund and rescheduled with Southwest for the following day. What a mess!!!
