Airports and fresh Chai

Taylor and I arrived in Pennsylvania yesterday afternoon. We came to visit the extended Taylor family for a few days. This was my first solo flight with Taylor. Andreas had to work and was not able to come with. So Taylor and I left Tulsa around 6:20 a.m. I had been dealing with some anxiety the day before the trip so I really had made it worse in my mind. But aside for my worry the trip went well except for having the stroller, his diaper bag, my purse, the camera bag, Taylor and going through security and getting on and off the plane. I just wish I had a few more arms. In Huston I actually forgot the camera case hanging on the chair after we got done eating the worst breakfast ever. After walking for which seemed like forever I realized that I didn't have it. In a horrible panic I turned around and headed back toward where I had eaten. I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to remember which way i had come from, and even more afraid to have to tell my husband that I had lost our camera. I had decided to sit way in the corner, back by the window so Taylor could look at the airplanes. Because I went back to where I was sitting and there it was right where I had left it. Thank God!
The rest of the trip was uneventful. Taylor watched some kids shows on his portable dvd player, played with his tape measure, ate a lot. I had put together quite a bag of tricks to make the trip more smooth.
And then to make all my stress wash away in one swoop we got to go to IKEA on our way to the farm! Arriving at the farm I was met with fresh hot Chai and I knew I was at my home away fom home.
