Our First Trip!

Jack and I made our first trip together on an airplane. He managed to only cry twice on the plane ride to Minnesota, and on the way back to AZ he was a champ! Not a peep! I tell ya, there's nothing like the looks you get from the seated people on an airplane as you walk down the tiny isle to your tiny seat. The looks seem to say, "You better keep that kid quiet or I am going to complain about you to my ride home from the airport!" It's an awful feeling. Conversely, there's nothing like the feeling of walking by all of those people after the flight and thinking, "Maybe you should talk about how great the baby did on your flight!"

We really enjoyed our trip back home. Ben was in a wedding in Michigan, so he spent a week away from us. He says he missed "us" incredibly, but I know the "us" is really "Jack". ;) I completely understand.

While in Minnesota, Jack, ironically, faced the hottest days of his life. You would think that Arizona would be where he would experience true heat. I am beginning to realize that Minnesota is the land of extremes. Extreme cold and extreme humid heat. So, you are probably wondering what we did on such hot days? Well, Betsy, Mick, Katie and I decided to take the babies (Ethan and Jack) to the Como Zoo! Katie and I are such good moms. :) I bet you'll never guess who couldn't handle the heat? The adults! The boys did great. We headed home and inflated Ethan's birthday present, a pool, filled it up and played in the water. It was one great day out of the many on our trip to Minnesota. Pictures will hopefully be coming soon. :)
