No monsters
Up, up and away! I’m off on vacation to somewhere sunny and warm, the first time we’ve taken a decent trip since the kids were born.
They’ve told me they just want to sit in the sand and play with plastic dinosaurs, which is pretty much all I want to do also. I’m not sure how they’ll handle the flight, the hotel, the food, etc… but we’ll get by.
We did a test trip a few months ago, staying in a hotel for two nights to see how they’d handle it. We arrived at night, and checked in. My youngest was already crashed out, but my eldest stormed into the hotel room and did a quick spot check, inspecting the room and giving both beds a quick bounce. Her evaluation:
“Nice room. Nice beds. No monsters. It’s perfect.”
We wrote that on the “how was your stay” card.
See you in a week.

How old are the kids? We’re taking my monsters (they’ll be 1 and 3 at the time of the trip) on a cross-country flight this fall for my brother in law’s wedding. I’m fully prepared for a nightmarish flight of enormous proportions. My wife is in denial.
If I can’t sedate them with tylenol, I’m going to sedate myself with Jim Beam.
Hey, glad you dropped by! My wee ones are 3 and 5. Our flight is only 3 hours, so we may all survive, but I’ll take your self-medication suggestion under advisement. Right now, they’re most excited by the idea that there may be snacks on the plane. I’ll let you know how it goes.
