    Vacation is going well, I’ve woken up every day at 4am due to youngest still not fully adjusted to the time zone change. Its dry as hell out here and I’m drowning in lotion. Discovered that our oldest gets car sick, so that was a fun thing to find out. The flight was probably the worst I’ve had, my back was killing me after 5 hours of playing hot potato with the youngest. He made a lot of friends on the flight though lol. He likes to play peekaboo with anyone he can make eye contact with, and several people told us he was a charmer as we got off the flight. The kids are having a great time, so that’s all that matters lol.

    We saw a cool light show the other day, going to a zoo later for more lights, kids are getting spoiled with stuff even before Christmas, cloths mostly. Oldest is helping make cookies. Youngest is terrorizing the little dogs in the house (they like it, mostly). All in all its been good. I would be lying if I said I don’t miss being home though heh. As much as its fucked up the kids routine, it’s fucked up mine too lol. I’m definitely a home body.

      I very occasionally fly solo but when I do, I try and see if I can sit next to a family or a parent with kids and let them know “hey, I have little kids, mind if I sit by you all because I’m totally good with any noise, kids climbing on seats, or whatever.” Did it once and the mom was very appreciative.
