Drugs, Alcohol, and Carbonation
We made it to San Diego safe and sound. Here’s a list of today’s highlights and low-lights:
Highlights:
–I learned that 2 year old boys can be complete angels!
–BC was totally intrigued by anything airplane.
–I learned that earphones and a DVD of Cars does keep a 2 year old entertained for more than 3 minutes!
–BC got SODA. Yes. Soda. He was ecstatic. As a result he’ll be singing my praises for the next three months, minimum. Sometimes you gotta bribe your kids with an off-limit treat!
–We visited Mikayla and Caitlyn tonight. Mikayla is the most beautiful baby! And so tiny.
Low-Lights:
–eClaire pooped the very second we stepped onto the plane.
–I changed her on top of the tiniest toilet known to man, in the airplane lavatory.
–eClaire screamed, hysterically, for 1/2 of the trip. Good thing that amounted to only about 30 minutes.
–I gave her soda to shut her up. Bad mom. Bad mom. But…she stopped crying momentarily as she drank it. There’s not a chance I would have ever given BC a sip of soda before his second birthday. Oh how things change.
–BC began to shiver, violently, while visiting his cousins.
–BC spiked a 103 degree temperature almost immediately.
–BC was dosed with Tylenol.
At dinner I had a beer. I’m wiped out. Looking for a more mellow day tomorrow! I’m glad to be in San Diego visiting my parents but now, I must sleep.

Hailey is now 19 months old and I’ve let her have sips of pop TWICE. She spit it out both times! I’m blessed, right? =)
Have fun on your trip!

[…] pretty fun keeping a three and a half year old entertained on a plane. Way easier than flying with two kids are under the age […]
