Yesterday Sierra and I went to Indiana by plane. This was Sierra's first time flying and she was soooo wonderful! We got to the airport at 0630 A.M. Pretty darn early! It was quite different then it usually is when one gets on a plane. This time I had Sierra in her carseat and stroller and it took 15 minutes to get through the metal detector. I had to take sierra out of the carseat, take the carseat off the stroller, fold the stroller, take off my shoes and put all our bags onto the convaer belt, then Sierra and I finally went through the metal detector. Fortunately it didn't go off. After that I had to put everything back the way it was. Once we got to the gate I had to fold up her stroller and carry it and the carseat and the diaper bag down to the plane. Don't ask me how I did that by myself. On the second flight 2 nice gentlemen helped me carry all the stuff to the plane. Once we were on the first flight it was smooth sailing. Sierra fell asleep for an hour and I got a little shut eye too. When she woke up she was just great. She ate and smiled and played with her toys. The second flight didn't go as smoothly. It was suppose to be an hour long, but it ended up being a four hour flight! When we started taxying Sierra massively crapped her diaper. I mean it was coming out the sides and top, it was a mess! Because we were taxying I wasn't allowed out of my seat. Fortunatly one of the flight attendants saw me struggling and let me take Sierra to the tiny bathroom to change her. There was poo everywhere! After that ordeal Sierra was fine. But the flight took forever! I was very glad when we finally landed in Indianapolis. What an adventure! Oh well, I got some cute pictures out of it.
