This past week I've been in NV and CA visiting family with my little nugget. He did amazing on the flight on the two fan trashcan and the flight into CA. We had a wonderful time in NV visiting my in-laws, I was able to get my hair done without taking him! I haven't had time to myself in a few months. Next we headed over the hill to CA to visit my family, I was really excited to see my nephew and I was looking forward to how they would interact with eachother. It kind of freaked me out because my son was being so good. He was sleeping great and taking his naps it was very different from our trip in December. Don't get me wrong I love my in-laws and family and I enjoy getting help from people and giving me a break, I even got my nails done, but I miss my husband and dogs like crazy. You know the saying "you don't know what you have until its gone," I can relate! My husband isn't gone he's working but to have help and him having the opportunity to see family would be fantastic.
Here's the story, my mom called me last night to tell me my flight was delayed until 10am, its original takeoff time was suppose to be 6:30am. I thought to myself I could wait the four hours with a baby in CA but I couldn't do the 6 hour layover in TX. So I called Continental and waited for 45 minutes to talk to someone to change my flight. I was able to change it to tomorrow. I was relieved because I could not imagine being stuck in an airport with a baby. When I woke up this morning I wanted to know what happened to the flight I was suppose to be on...bad idea! The flight had taken off 30 minutes late and would arrive in TX 30 minutes late, which would have been perfect and I would be able to make my connection flight! SO I'm looking at the good in the situation, I get to spend more time with my family and my little nugget caught a cold so I like to think of it as a blessing in disguise so he can get more rest before we go home tomorrow. It's very frustrating when flying especially with a baby and by myself but in the end I get an extra day with my family!
