Cross country flight and the Australian Rugby Team


OK I bet that caption got your attention. It's been SOO long since my last post and I feel like Erin is a completely different person since I was last here. We've been to New York and back and she's just starting to walk around the furniture and say a few "words".


Our flight to New York was pretty much uneventful- Thank goodness ! But my biggest complaint was going through imigration in Sydney airport. There we were, Erin in the baby bjorn strapped to the front of me and an equal if not more weighing backpack strapped to the back of me, surrounded by the Australian rugby team. George Gregan was standing right in line behind us, the rest of the team was scattered in the line on their way to New Zealand. Would you believe that NOT one of them offered to carry my back pack ! I'm a big fan of the team so this was dissapointing and not a good way to start our holiday. None the less we made the flight on our way to one of the greatest cities on earth. The flight was packed with middle and high school kids so they kept Erin very busy that she didn't sleep. By the end of the flight it was all that I could do to keep her in the bassinet- have a look at some of the pics of Erin - "sleeping". Erin was great but we were both extremely tired by the time we touched down at JFK.
