Traci and Tate accompanied me to a work conference in San Diego last week, and Tate was all the rage. From the second we stepped in the airplane, the little guy was getting compliments left and right. Including, but not limited to, the stewardess staring lovingly at him while performing her safety spiel and then asking me if I'd needed her to burp him. Seriously.
After Curtis' meltdown on the plane ride home from Disneyland, I wasn't sure I would ever fly with one of our kids again. But Tate was a masterful traveler, quietly having a bottle on the way there and sleeping the entire flight back.
The idea behind taking Traci and Tate was to give Traci a little break from chasing around all three kids. Of course, the second we got in San Diego, all we could think about were the things we wanted to show Paige and Curtis. Oh, the guilt.
But those two couldn't have been happier with their time with each of the grandmas and all of the cousins. The morning after we got home, Curtis woke up and said, "Which grandma's are we going to today?"
Maybe we'll go on more vacations without them.

I'm pretty sure that's where we go for Mexican food in San Diego. I could be wrong, but I recognize the tree trunk in the middle of the restaurant. Congrats on the cute kids!
You should have bartered some Tate-time for a turn steering the airplane.
