Arrived in Louisiana

OMG, what a trip. The first plane from RDU to Atlanta was packed. We were suppose to be in a middle seat but a really nice lady gave up her Aisle seat to Matt and me and he did great. He got fussy on the descent but that was to be expected since he does have a cold. The second flight I asked if there were empty seats and if so could I bring the car seat on...the girl told me no, but of course we board and yep there are 3 empty seats so she could have worked some magic for us but didn't...so we made it through that flight with a big blowout half way...yep that was a fun diaper change in this tiny little airplane bathroom...luckily it wasn't so bad that that I had to do a wardrobe change as well. I was so glad to get off that flight and wow, it is hot here in Louisiana...So after a long day of 1 very poopy diaper midflight and 2 flights and an adventure in Atlanta airport we made it...we only lost our favorite little toy in the process...I think it fell out of my bag in the Baton Rouge airport...oh well, only 1 thing unaccounted for is a huge success.

It was great to see Grandpa Joe. Matt was very fussy last night but like a champ Grandpa rocked and fed and tried to comfort the grouchy, tired little man...eventually we got to sleep around 9pm and only had 1 wakeup at 1am to feed...then right back to sleep until 5am...which wasn't bad considering that is really 6am our time and he took a few ounces and fell asleep for another hour before it was up for good time.

We had lots of fun playing at Grandpa's house and even took a walk in the neighborhood this morning before the heat hit...now we are in big VP...we got to see Granny Winnie and boy did we flirt and laugh with her...but nap time is finally here and Granny Julia is asleep on the couch and Matt in the brand-new pack-n-play. While they are sleeping, I am trying to get some work done on-line to include updating the blog...

hopefully tomorrow I will have some energy to get back to running...it is really hot so I guess I better plan on going first thing in the morning. After the hamburger, and fried foods all day yesterday I need to get back into my workout routine so I don't start putting back on the weight. Although I get my Grandma's smothered roundsteak tonight so i guess I have to put off healthier eating 1 more meal...

So I will try to get some picks and video's up on my facebook page later in the week. We have had lots of Kodiac moments with meeting new grandparents and great-grandparents.
