First Flight

As you can see we went to Chicago as a family while Clayton was there for a training related to his job. We weren't going to drive all the way, so we took a chance a flew with a near 7 month old baby. After hearing some horror stories from family and friends, we were quite nervous.


To our delight, aside from the normal baby fussiness, Kaylee did quite well on the 3.5 hour flight. Both the trip out and the return flight went well. The return flight was especially nice because the woman at the gate moved the person sitting next to us so our little family could have an open seat and extra room. Thanks American Airlines (but not really since you made us pay to check our bags) for moving that unknown person.

I'm glad you had a good experience. I don't recommend flying from 11 months to 17 months. We did. It was rough.
