Success after IF

Traveling This Time of Year Sucks

We moved this week from VA to KS. I thought it would be easier for DS and I to fly and for DH and my FIL to drive. Well, DS and I got stuck in Chicago, had to stay overnight at the airport, I ran out of diapers and the airport was sold out!! Seriously, how does that happen?? I ended up asking anyone I saw with a toddler who looked DS's age if they had any extra. We had to fly into another city and take a two hour shuttle to get home. We finally got home and my luggage didn't arrive. I didn't have a lot with me since except my diaper bag because I had the stroller and car seat with me in the airport. While I was in the airport I hated having the car seat, but I'm so glad I didn't check it because I wouldn't have been able to get DS on the shuttle since our bags flew into our original destination and they didn't arrive anyway! The only bright spot of my trip (besides finally arriving safely) was that my sister was flying during this time also and she also got stuck in Chicago for a couple of hours.

    I'm sorry you had such a horrific experience!  I agree, it can be a PITA to travel this time of year.  We were in New England when the blizzard hit, due to fly home on Friday.  We got very lucky that our flight wasn't cancelled and we did get home....my parents are lucky, too, because after a week visiting them I don't think I could've handled an extra day stuck at their house with them!

    Ha ha!! We're staying with my parents right now while we wait to close on our new house and although we just got here, it's going to be a long two weeks!!

    We did get to meet up. I have to admit though that a tiny part of me was wishing she would have to stay all night too.
