Hey there. Me, again. I'd like to say that I will be posting more or trying to, but even though those are my intentions... I can promise anything. So, maybe we just don't talk about that.
Easter was great. And exhausting. I must admit that the "Easter Bunny" has a really hard time stopping themself from filling and filling and filling the basket. There's just too many fun things to add in... so deal.
I know that some people believe that Easter should not be about "gifts," but I would much rather gifts than candy. We also played the "donate your candy/get to buy a small toy" card this year. Gwen and I sorted through her candy and selected a bunch that she "donated" {I don't even know where I came up with donate, but it worked... I'll probably need a more in depth explanation next year} and she then was able to get a small figurine set. Problem solved.
Next up, only 6 more days until we go to Disney World!! Gwen is filled with excitement and tells (and invites) every one she sees. I will most likely be balling my eyes out the entire trip, just seeing how happy she is and how magical everything is to her. Cannot wait.
Back to the matter at hand, I actually don't have a fear of flying. I have a fear of flying... with Addie Kay. Girlfriend DOES NOT like being "restrained" - be it carseat, stroller, baby carrier... she wants no part of it. She wants FREEEEEEEDOM. And that is not something that is usually found on an airplane. So, I am a little nervous.
I mean, I am packing all the essentials: snacks, toys, iPad, etc. But, I feel like I am going to have to buy the plane a round of drinks before we even take off. Thankfully it's only a 2 1/2 hour flight, and not a 2 day drive (could not imagine), but there is the potential that it will be the longest hours of our lives.
I've even paid for preselected seats. As far in the front as possible so that we will be the last ones on and the first ones off. And you better believe that I will be waiting to the last possible moment to board. If you could, maybe say a Hail Mary or two that we have a safe and smooth flight, and no turbelence either. Hehe.
Any tips for me??? Please remember that Addie is only 16 months old, and bargaining is really out of the question. But, I am open and grateful for all suggestions!
