Anxiety

Today is finally over. I traveled to Utah alone with 2 kids. I was anticipating this day for months and i'm just glad it's over. And I can say that it went surprisingly well. I made sure to buys TONS of food for the girls to snack on the whole time in the airport and plane. And then I bought a bunch of new stuff for Emma to play with. The 2 things that saved me were the "color wonders" by Crayola. They are the markers that only mark on special paper. At HEB, there was a little set with Cars pictures and I knew that would be perfect. THe other thing was a "Paper craft" set I bought at Dollar Tree. It came with like 400 little stickers that distracted Emma for 1/2 the flight! I am just so thankful that it all went well and we are all safe! Now onto adjusting to family and time changes. I'll be here for 2 weeks, for my sister's wedding. Anyone in the area wanting to hang out or catch-up, let's do it! Pictures will be coming shortly. And obviously the computer problem isn't a problem since my familyhas working computers..yeah!

congratulations!!!
man, I am SOOO impressed with you! I kept thinking as I was bouncing with Matilda in the aisle of the plane "what in the heck am I going to do with two?!?" Now I know. Delicious foods, sticker books, and color wonder books.
Got it.
Good job! I hope you have a FABULOUS time!
p.s. emma's little elephant swimsuit is my most favorite swimsuit in the world.

I'm glad your flight went well. I've only traveled with one, I can't imagine two on the plane and in the airport. Have a great time and enjoy your friends and family.

Lyssa you are a trooper, just traveling with myself while being pregnant was a chore. I can never bring enough to eat! Glad all the toys worked, anything to distract, right? Have fun in Utah, it is so beautiful in the fall!!
