In just a few, short hours we'll be on our way to the airport flying to Florida. I'm sooo happy to say that I got everything packed yesterday, AND was able to fit all of Logan's things in ONE suitcase. I was so worried we wouldn't have enough space only being able to check 3 bags, but I did fine.
Now I'm off to shower and get dressed and put some last-minute things away in my bag and then get Logan ready to go and fed breakfast. I sure hope today goes smoothly... toddlers and airplanes aren't usually fun... I'm hoping our boy is a little angel baby today!!

Too darn much to do.
We leave for Florida on Friday and won't return until the 17th... and traveling with a toddler in tow means I have twice (or heck, three times) the packing to do than if I was just going alone or with Lee. I have a LOT to do before we go...
* Clean the house (because I hate coming home from a trip to a messy/dirty house!)
* Mow the yard right before we leave on Wed. or Thurs. so it's not a jungle when we get back.
* Go to the grocery store to get a few things (but not too much) to last us just this week until we leave (milk, etc. don't want to buy too much or else stuff will just spoil while we're gone.) Also, get a few last-minute things for our trip (travel size things, stuff like that.)
* Get my eyeglasses fixed since the nose-pad-thingy decided to fall off, making my glasses horribly uncomfortable to wear. True, I don't wear them much, just at night, but I would like them to not slash open my face when I wear them.
* "Teach" Grandma and Papa all the dog and cat routines and set them up with a dog crate at their house and set up a different, easier to use litter box for the cats (Grandma's unsure of how the automatic cat box works so I'll put out the regular "you have to scoop it" one instead.) Oh, and be sure to have enough food for the furry creatures while we're away.
* Pack all of my crap, plus Logan's crap... that's a whole-day job in itself. I'll be doing all the packing on Thursday and running around like a chicken with its head cut off that day.
* Finally, after all that's done... make it to the airport on time, in one piece, having not killed Lee, the baby, or our friend, Mike, who's also flying down with us.
Did you get tired reading all that? I sure did. Now I have to get my butt off the computer and start on my to-do list.
I may update the blog between now and when we leave, but it's not likely... watch for some posts from Florida though. We plan to take Logan on his first trip to the beach... that should be fun!
