Vacation

Traveling with a 6 month old is not for the weak willed!!! Getting to the airport and through security was all a piece of cake, I fed him right before we get on the plane and he falls asleep in my carrier, the world is a happy place.  Then about 30 minutes into our 2 hour plane trip he wakes up and is playing and talking quite loudly.  Thankfully there were about 5 other babies on the plane so the talking was not a problem.  Then it hits him, my nap was very short and I am feeling cranky!!! I try to calm him down and get him to fall asleep, but no.  Thankfully we are in the very back of the plane and I decide to stand by the stewardesses area, they were great they let me stay there as long as I needed.  then the crying happened, and oh was there crying!  I tried to bounce him and walk around my little 4x4 square, but he would have none of that.  Then after about 45 minutes which seemed like eternity he calmed down and fell back asleep :)  And we had a very peaceful ride after that.  Now we are enjoying the wonderful company of Ian's dad and step mother and their wonderful kids.  This is Ethan's first time meeting them and he is loving it! Chalene and Kai are going to meet us up here tomorrow and the boys will get a chance to rumble :-) (My money is on Ethan) and then Ian's grandpa and grandma will be meeting us up here as well.  It will be great to get to see everyone again.  

Monday we are planning on going up to Lake Taho where we will be spending some time with Coleen's side of the family.  This is going to be a wonderful trip.  

I will update you with the rest of the trip once we are home.
