Gettin' Ready

The girls and I are getting ready to head to IA for some fun with the grandparents, a wedding, friends and so much more! We'll be there for 3wks and we are really excited! So excited, that I became really panicked yesterday when I saw the news clip about a
toddler and mom being kicked off the plane because he kept saying "bye bye plane". Yikes!! CJ likes to talk! I didn't realize it had become a quiet library on the planes. Which lead me to another news clip about a woman being kicked off for nursing. Oh boy! We might not make it! So I called Northwest today and quickly explained that 3 of us are traveling and to make sure it was okay nurse. (I have friends who have, and I feel I should be able to...but I also don't want to get stranded in Memphis or something). He checked with his supervisor and told me it
would be okay. I also verified that I could bring snacks, and a toddler on board. So barring any tantrums or cranky air crew, we should make it. I'll take your prayers for an uneventful trip if you have any.

Eric will have a quiet house to study in while we are
gone. Everyone "studies" when Daddy is. CJ likes to help, and Laurelei won't stop 'talking' unless Eric pays attention to her. We'll miss his first flight, but he won't feel guilty about being so focused on classes either. Panther is the one who will truly be lonely. Hopefully we'll get some good family time in this weekend, but I know he has a bunch of CBTs to do plus some computer training stuff. This is me, trying to keep up with his schedule and studying. I'm not really sure what it is all about. Just that he has a bunch of stuff to do.
