Friday morning around 4 am, after his meal, instead of putting the kid back to bed, we packed up and headed out bleary-eyed to the airport on our way to visit Gran and all our friends in Northern Virginia. Choosing the minimalist approach, we did not carry the carseat, the stroller, the boppy, the jumbo bag of diapers, the bottles, or other "essentials". We asked Jen to pick up a convertible carseat that will work for visits to Virginia until the kid is 40 pounds, and a bag of diapers. We carried the Bjorn and the Binky, and Monkey Pillow of course.
Amazingly, we ran into the President himself en route... I was incredibly excited, but Xander isn't big into politics and found him "stiff" and boring. ZZZZZ.....
Xander is a born traveller, and did really well on the flights. He was so happy and curious and cheerful in fact, that he charmed the staff at NW Airlines into some really fantastic photo ops. We even got to hang out in the cockpit- a rare treat.
Check it out!
Cockpit tour?! That's awesome!! Sounds like you had a weekend jam packed with fun fun fun!
