First Class Flyer

Pictures from our flight home on November 8. My camera is always packed in my carry on, but it is typically taken apart (body, lens, flash) and packed away. Only under rare circumstances do I unpack it to snap a picture while travelling. Hannah gave me two reasons to unpack it.

First, she was a total rock-star flying in first class...and I just had to brag. She wore her seatbelt the whole time, didn't get squirrely or antsy and she was quiet. So quiet. I guess traveling since she was 3 months old is finally paying off. :) Good girl!

The second reason needs a little explaining. We were at Denver airport for an hour-long layover. Not long in the travel world. I was pushing her through stores to kill some time when Hannah started to fall asleep. Well, I couldn't let that happen only 15 minutes before boarding our second and final flight. So I took her to the gate, took her out of her stroller and sat her up in one of the rows of chairs. She wobbled for a few moments, then proceeded to climb over the arm rest, put her face on the next seat over and let her body flop the rest of the way over to the next seat. Her feet dangled off the chair, coming to rest about half an inch off of the floor. I watched her for a moment thinking she was going to get up, but she didn't. Girlfriend fell asleep on the chair...with her feet hanging over the edge.

As I was taking pictures, a little old lady came up to me and asked if Hannah was playing, but when she got closer to see, she started laughing, because this little girl was sound asleep on the chair.

With her feet hanging off...
And not touching the floor.

It is little reasons like this, that I make sure to have my camera with me. :)
