So I slept very poorly last night. Eh, it was to be expected. I woke up on my own at 3:45 so I got out of bed and turned off the alarm set for 4. After I was up and ready and so was Matt, we got Maddy up. She did really well considering. There were a few tears when we made her wear her coat to the car, but that was it. Check in was smooth. Maddy and I had the same seats together on both flights. It was in a set of 2 so it was just us. Really nice!
Saying goodbye to daddy was hard for me but Maddy didn't seem to mind much since I don't think she realized at the time that we were LEAVING for a while. Daddy even teared up when we left! Of course, I did too. I'm just that way. :) Maddy was fabulous for me during screening. I had her hold the tickets and my drivers license while I put our bags, shoes, laptop and stroller on the scanner. Once through we went on the people mover (which was pretty crowded). We departed to terminal B and I heard them calling all rows and all passengers for our plane! Holy Cow! So off we went running (well, Maddy in the stroller). I couldn't figure it out. I felt that we were there with more than enough time to spare. Once we were on and settled, which didn't take long, it was only 5:38 and we were scheduled for take off at 6! So they obviously called early.
Maddy was exhausted on the first flight but didn't fall asleep until about 30 minutes before we were going to land. She even slept through landing! Once in Atlanta we had some breakfast and did some walking around. We actually landed 15 minutes early so we had some time to kill.
Our next flight was just as uneventful. Maddy didn't sleep, but she did watch a little bit of videos that I downloaded to my iphone for her. She seemed to enjoy that. We landed early in Milwaukee so that was nice.
Of course Grandma and Grandpa were excited to see Maddy. She was kind of subdued since she was so tired, but she was pleasant although wouldn't let her thumb out of her mouth--so tired! After we had lunch and unpacked, Maddy and I went straight down for a nap at 12:30. We didn't get up until 3. I need to get a clock though. I didn't know what time it was so I wasn't sure if I was supposed to wake up Maddy or not.
Maddy and grandma played outside in the leaves this afternoon. She had a blast with that. We talked to our neighbors some and had a good time with that. Matt still is the computer god. He fixed my internet sight unseen and it wasn't necessarily an easy fix!
He also said that he missed me, really missed me--already. And that he was astounded at how much he already misses me even though I just left and had been at work all day and not even home. :) :) Speaking of missing--Maddy misses daddy horribly, too. She keeps asking for him and I have to keep reminding her that daddy is at home and we'll see him in a week.
Ok, well, time for bath! Have a good week!
