Leilands First Flight

Today I took Leiland on his very first plane ride. We flew from Las Vegas to Atlanta. We got to the airport at 630 for an 8am flight. By the time we got to the check in line it was almost 7. Security was really quick and no hassle as all. When I arrived to the gate they were already boarding. I took a minute to email Tim just so he knew we had arrived. I got on the plane and we were towards the back and had a window seat. I carried Leiland in the ergo carrier which was great but I took it off to buckle myself and nurse leiland. He fell asleep and didn't care about takeoff. It was really hard to get comfortable and I was so hungry but we made it. At about an hour out I moved and it upset Leiland and he wanted to eat again. So I fed him and he kept sleeping. He stayed asleep through the landing and taxiing. He started to fuss when I had to move him to put the ergo back on. He was fine except he wanted me to be moving.

After the flight we walked toward baggage. I walked as we usually do instead of using the tram and that was a little much. I got my bags as soon as I arrived to baggage claim. An attendant helped me and wheeled my bag and the car seat to the rental car check in. I got my car no problem and we were on our way. Leiland did great and woke at the avis station with a smile on. I loaded the car and programmed the GPS to be on our way.

In the car Leiland got pretty upset. After 30 minutes in bad traffic I had to pull over to let him out. Poor guy. So I found a place to park and fed him. I talked and played with him for 30 minutes and talked to Tim for a few. I think That helped because he went to sleep within 5 minutes of driving again. Ever since he has been in a wonderful mood.

I gave him a bath and he is sleeping now. Who knows if the time change will affect him.
