Well Grace and I have officially returned! We are back here on the east coast after spending a few days with my parents and sisters. It was great to be with them. So, as I was traveling on this trip, I compiled a list of things that I learned while traveling with a 1 year old. Here they are. Plus at the bottom I shared a couple cute pictures of Grace on her plane ride. Here they are…
- Mcdonalds isn’t open at 5:00 am
- People are a whole lot nicer with a baby on your lap
- Waking up at 4:15 isn’t early enough for a 7:30 flight
- Even a one year old knows she wants her own seat!!!
- Traveling is stressful enough by yourself
- You cant comvince a one year old that they really do want to play with their toys
- The changing table in the airplane bathroom is really designed for a baby box turtle. Not a human child.
- Don’t expect to actually get yourself breakfast in the airport…
- Flying with a one year old is a learning experience
- When flying back to Philly people will cut you off boarding the plane, even if you have a baby.
- When sitting behind business men make sure your baby doesn’t cry otherwise they will stare at you the whole time until they have silence
- Due to point #11 surround yourself with grandmoms or women not wearing power suits.

aww, thats really cute. And yeah, don’t expect your kids to be perfect on planes, accroding to the stories I’ve heard about me, I was a terrible flyer when i was little, then again I flew like at least 2 times a month, but hey, its still flying. =]
