Globe-trotting toddlers
March 6th, 2007 by amylherzog
One day, not long ago, it was warm enough outside for Jacob to run around wearing only a diaper.
Another day, not long after that, Jon decided to get his outdoor herb garden started for the year.
Today, the high in Pebble Beach is 65 degrees. It’s already 50, and sunny, and beautiful.
Today, the high in Portland ME is 17 degrees, and currently it’s only 2.
Wednesday night, Jacob and I will fly from our warm, sunny paradise to a frozen tundra. The things we do for family. :) I’m a little ashamed, honestly, at how quickly I’ve adjusted to the great weather we have here. Jon and I were talking last night about what we’d do in ME, and at least the first 5 ideas tossed around wouldn’t work in a cold, snowy place. I’m sure we’ll have a great time, though, and Jacob is looking forward to seeing his grandparents.
Honestly, the thing I’m most apprehensive about is the air travel required. It’s the first time I’ll be flying solo with Jacob, and I’m pretty uncertain that 2 arms will be sufficient. I ordered an attachment to our carseat that turns it into a stroller, and hopefully it will arrive today or tomorrow. Then at least I could contend with “only” a suitcase, a backback, a carseat, and a toddler (theoretically) riding in the carseat.
Aah! It sounds insane when I write it that way. Wish me luck!
(Oh, and I upgraded the WordPress version that powers this blog. Hopefully, for those of you with problems commenting and viewing extended entries, this will take care of things. Please let me know if you continue to have issues with the site.)
I don’t suppose trips to Maine involve side trips to Boston, or is that just way too much to ask for? ;)
BTW wordpress is giving me & my firefox the love now.
