This is what it's like to wait for a plane! FINALLY, I understand what Dad goes through when he's on a business trip! Tickets, security, waiting, etc.
Right now we are waiting in the waiting room for our plane. Our plane is at 3:30, so we have quite a ways to go yet. Mom is on the phone with my siblings and grandma and Dad is looking over our paperwork.
We came really early and fortunately too, because we had some ticket stuff to work out for Belly Boy. We made friends with the people at the airport and they are sorry they won't be working on the day we come back with our new baby boy!
We stayed up really late last night, (to 1:30) and got up at 6 today so hopefully we'll be able to sleep on the plane and avoid much jet lag.
We packed all our stuff up this morning. We filled 6 suitcases, have 3 carry ons, and 3 personal belongings!!! We look like we're staying for more than a week. Oh well. Better be safe than sorry.
Mom had butterflies in her stomach this morning, but says they're gone now. The most nervousness I've felt was when I said bye to my friend, Rachel, who saw us off at the airport. My hands, knees, and everything were shaking. Right now I feel great, though. And as for Dad, he's used to flying.
I remember when I was little, I sat in this room and watched my Dad board his plane. But now they have so much security, that they don't allow anyone to come back here. Rats!!! We are sitting in front of a big wall full of windows and right now I'm watching a plane take off. We have the best seats!
I will try to write again soon. Until then, bye.
