Flight

Our flight to Germany went very well; Case played Leapster for a while then slept for 5 or 6 hours, all the way until I had to buckle him in the seat for the landing.

Case's feet would occasionally stick out in the aisle, and I would smile apologetically/indulgently to people who had to step over his feet, and thought to myself how much happier everyone was that he was sleeping. Also that they didn't have to sit in front of him.

Merry Christmas

Tomorrow morning Monkey and I begin our perilous journey to visit Marc in Germany. I have plenty of Leapster games plus some cough syrup with codeine to assure that Case has a great flight. To celebrate, here are some of the fifty pictures I took trying to get a good photo for Case's passport, arranged from cutest to goofiest.

My little jet-setter! Christmas in Germany, then next summer we are off to Okinawa! (Did everyone hear that we got orders to Kadena? We will be there by the end of July!)

Arrrr!

The other day Case was scratching his ear so much it was bleeding, so I tied up his head like a pirate to slow further agitation.



I know that it is a lot of pictures of the same thing; but catching photos of him smiling is still so awesome and novel to me. The camera continues to pay for itself.
