Our big trip

It's been a long week since our 5.5 hour sleep stint. That night was followed up by another good night and then several bad ones. One of those nights wasn't totally Courtney's doing but a mild set back on the dogs part (he's fine, just a strain or something). Either way, I'm pooped.

But, about our big trip!! I was a mess, really nervous about our flight. We got to the airport and since Courtney isn't a big help in carrying things, I was left to carry everything. I looked like a bag lady or some novice traveler, I'm sure. However, most people were very nice and helped us through security and with all of our junk. I was nervous about sitting next to some evil man on the plane, a professional business man who was all anti-baby. That didn't happen though. Instead, I sat next to some woman who couldn't have been more anti-baby and more unfriendly. I mean, she was so cold towards us that I could have cried myself. She needn't have been a beotch though, Courtney was an ANGEL!!! She made nary a peep for 99% of the flight and when she did make a peep, I fed her and she immediately stopped making noise. She slept the entire way, didn't spit up on me (or the evil lady, too bad) and was as cute as could be. What a relief!! Grandpa and grandma met us in Hartford, all of our luggage arrived and we were whisked away, no problems anywhere. YAY!!

Courtney seems to be experiencing some type of growth spurt or something as she ate all night long (and all day today for that matter) and allowed me to get no sleep at all. I think she misses her daddy and their special tummy snuggling before bed time. I know personally I miss Paul terribly, not just because I miss him but because this single parent thing is HARD. I have a whole new respect for single parents, I just can't imagine.
