Travel Log 2- Flight to Phoenix, AZ

Our second trip was a flight from Texas to Phoenix, Arizona. We tackled the road, now we tackled the air! We learned a few things on this trip, too.

Here are a few lessons about flight:
1. Expect and anticipate delayed flights. We didn't expect delays but made mental notes for future flights. Kate slept during the delay in her car seat/stroller combo.
2. You can gate-check car seats and strollers, so she was comfy in her own space until we were on the plane. If the flight isn't full her car seat can fit in the seat, which is great! :) She slept the whole leg.
3. Any diaper blow outs are most likely going to happen AFTER you've changed them while on the ground and right after you level off at altitude. With that being said, you learn how to change a baby on your lap on a full flight.

4. Airline aisles are not big enough for more than one person to comfortably (and un-awkwardly) fit through at the same time- especially if one (or both of you) have babies.
5. Kate will cry at some point on the flight. The solution was to strap her into the Baby Bjorn and rock until I felt sick to my stomach.

With all the lessons that Baby Kate taught us, we arrived safely in Arizona. We enjoyed seeing Josh's family and introducing Kate to them.

We also enjoyed sharing meals and ice cream with friends. Although I always carry a camera with me, pictures are not always taken. :(  Nevertheless, we have many wonderful memories of laughter, warm weather, and testifying of God's grace to us as a family.
