i held beckam facing forward and pushed the stroller with one arm and then pulled the suitcase behind me through the 30 minutes we spent in the customs line. then, i looked like an idiot while i searched for all of our documents with becks in my arms, and when i finally made it to my gate (5 minutes before my flight was supposed to take off), beckam put on an intense poop grunt show, and i had to change him on my lap cuz it was time to board! haha it was quite the overwhelming experience!
once we got on the plane, becks did pretty good. it was a tiny plane, and we were seated next to this body builder of a guy of course, but luck was on our side when they moved him to an empty seat to give me some more room. becks slept for a bit and played with his toys and looked out the window and was a real trooper! every time he fussed, i felt bad for everyone on the plane and tried to shush him with something, and we made it without anyone freaking out on me - phew!
our plane was an hour late, so we eventually found dust wandering around looking for us, and i couldn't have handed the suitcase over to him any faster! we were so excited to see him, and becks was all smiles for his long lost dad!
overall - a little overwhelming and i learned that 2 is better than 1 when you're traveling with a baby :)

Too cute that Dust made a sign for you!!
I love that his poster is all folded up because he couldn't find you, lol. I love AJ first plane pictures and Becks turned out jusst as cute, good work being a single Mom on the trip and not breaking into tears!
I'm impressed.
Especially with all the picture taking during it! Good to hear it was a success.
Hope you had a great time in Ray-town.
P.S. I loved the sign. Too cute.
Dustin did not make you that cute sign???!! that is SO freaking sweet!!!! you guys are too cute. becks...well...what can I say...I'm in love with that kid....mostly his endless smiles and bald little head! lol
haha... i love the welcome home poster that Dust made!!! Too cute!!! I miss you guys!!
Love how Dustin even thinks of putting together a poster for you and becks. You guys are great for each other and it looks like the plane ride was a great success. What wouldn't be between a 1.5 plane ride or a ride of 14 hrs. Glad it all turned out great and love theh picture of becks looking out the plane window!
At least he was good on the plane. We travelled to New York and the baby at the front of the plane threw up, and the AC vents carried the smell throughout the entire plane. Nice, I know. So good for you!!
You are a brave woman! My sis-in-law does that with Jonas too and I can never figure out how you have enough hands!
