Last weekend we flew to Oklahoma to watch my little sister graduate (I guess not so little though, since she is the tallest in the family). I was a little nervous/anxious about the flight as I know flying with children is so unpredictable, but Brett surprised us all. He did great! He fell asleep in the airport before we boarded the plane so I thought wow this is going to be great; however, the moment we started taxing out to the runway he woke up and was wide awake. He was so curious about everything: the new sights and sounds. After about 20 minutes of taking it all in, he was out again and stayed that way while we changed planes in Chicago and all the way to Oklahoma. Now when we got to my parents house at 1 am, that was a whole other story. Brett thought it was time to wake-up and play with everyone.
Now even though the flight was smooth not everything went that way. When we arrived in OKC, we arrived to no luggage. And what was worse than that was the attendant could not even track it, which meant it was probably left in Cleveland. Needless to say we were all happy for the clean clothes when it finally arrived later the next day.
The way back to Cleveland was even better. I think Brett was so exhausted from the weekend he couldn't do anything but sleep. He laid on Scott's lap the entire way and didn't even wake up when we arrived in Cleveland. He stayed asleep in the shuttle to our car and in the car on the way home. He woke up just long enough to eat and fall back to sleep for a 4 hour nap. Poor little guy was exhausted! He better get used to all the people because he's going to be bombarded in 3 weeks!
