Leah's First Vacation ........Nawlin's Here We Come













It was our first vacation as a family and we went to visit Grandma Shirley and the rest of the Shaw family in Louisiana ( in Gonzalez....30 min outside of New Orleans).Leah's first plane ride was a success. With a smart move by Mom and Dad we moved seats to be behind a wall and she had her very own play area. She made a million friends on the plane and it was the one time we were happy to be right next to the bathroom ( alot of people to play hide and seek with). The bottle trick was great ( Thanks, Amy and Jodi....my flying experts!). Coming home was a little more tricky since the flight left at 7 am. She was not in the best of moods but wasn't crying either. I just never realized how quiet a packed plane can be that early in the morning.....any peep from her and EVERYONE heard it. But she fell asleep for a while in Daddy's arms ( which she never does, so she was really tired) and we managed the rest of the flight with alot of food, drinks, toys, and distractions.
