Stress


I know, I know. Stop complaining. But this is good stress I suppose. See, I'm flying to Louisiana for the first time with Archie and I'm doing it solo for the flight there. Andoe will be with us on the way back. Of course I'm just picture my son acting like a wild banshee on the plane, screaming the whole way. Honestly, that's not Archie at all. Sure he's a typical rambunctious toddler, but he's also very mellow at times and never carries on in a fit for more that a few seconds. So why am I torturing myself? Also, I'm not a good flier myself and now I have to worry about someone besides myself. I know, this is all dumb and once I get to New Orleans and get myself a huge daiquiri, all of this stress will be a stupid distant memory. Until then, I will embrace the hives. I really don't have hives, but I might as well.

If you are well prepared there is no reason to stress. Bring lots of things for him to do, lots of snacks. See if the flight attendants will do something special since it is his first flight. All the attention you pay to him will make the flight super quick. Or you could do what my mom did to us when we were little and give us childrens chewable dramamine and we slept the whole trip.

you will be fine...buy a few toys he has never seen and DONT pull them out till he gets fussy, which he wont because he's Archie.

Have Fun and drink a blue one for me
