flight with aunt cake.

aunt cake (kate) got to take her first flight with the little bear cub over thanksgiving.  we loaded ourselves down like alpacas with enough baby paraphenalia to save the world, and the baby himself, and headed off to illinois together.  it was quite the experience, we laughed a ton and it was awesome to have her along to help with babykins.

we set up shop at the gate waiting to leave denver.  it's nice to have a big blankie to throw down so brades could stretch his legs a little, play with his toes, etc.  he's just pretty much wollered to death by the time we get anywhere when we travel, so it's nice to let him have some space.

my little travel buddy!  and don't forget his constant companion sophie.

toes in mouth: check!

by the end of the 2.5 hour flight to st.louis brady was DONE.  us too.  i think this picture depicts our travel scenario.  we just kept smiling through the thrashing - what else is there to do?  overall he was really great, the last few minutes were just a bit rough.

thanks for traveling with us kate!  had a GREAT time and look forward to many more adventures with us three :)
