North Carolina Trip '09


Friday, October 2, 2009
We got up this morning at 3:30 AM and went to pick up Danielle and the kids. We realized we didn’t have both strollers so we went back to our house and I couldn’t find the stroller in the garage. I quickly realized that it was in Danielle’s garage. So back to Danielle’s we went. We finally made it to the airport at about 4:50 for our flight at 6:00 am. We piled on 2 car seats, 2 strollers, 2 suitcases on sticks, 3 backpacks, 1 purse and 1 diaper bag. Wow are we good or what?

The first leg of the flight was great! Danielle had 3 seats for her and Taylor and Hailey and I had 3 seats for us. Hailey said “This is so fun Mom. We’re going on an airplane!” She played with her stickers, her phone, had snacks and watched Cinderella. She went potty on the plane several times and no accidents! Taylor was even good. It was a nice surprise.

The 2nd and 3rd legs were a little more crowded, but all still went well. Hailey napped in my arms for a couple of hours and so did Taylor.

We arrived at Raleigh Durham airport at about 4:30 and after missing 2 rental car shuttles we were finally on our way to get our car. It took about 30 minutes to get the car, put the car seats in and get on the road. After about a half an hour we made it to dinner and got back on the road. We arrived at our hotel at around 8:30. Now the kids are struggling to get to sleep. Wish us luck…
