Los Estados Unidos



We're baaaaaaaaaaaaack.

The journey back was just as crazy as suspected. The plan was to have a nice relaxing morning and get to the airport early. Things started to come unraveled when Fischer decided to start pushing up and looking out of the top of the bassinet. She looked like a little baby para-scope and was locked and loaded on mommy and daddy.



My sleepy state did not not help the situation by only offering up duck and cover techniques. So after multiple crying episodes and not much sleep it was time for her 5:30 wake up time.

She was exhausted so we thought we would just let her sleep in the room. As we have found out 2 exhausted parents and one well-rested baby definitely trumps the inverse. As Fischer Moss rested soundly in the room sleeping until 10:30 we sat outside held captive by the small mullet headed fisher. We sat on this weird chair with bloodshot eyes, un-showered, unable to enter our room where 2 large comfortable beds were empty.

This risky attempt, that almost made us miss our flight, paid off hugely when we successfully logged the whole 4 hour flight without a peep from Fischer. We had completely ran out of tricks just before landing.

Things settled down a bit in Columbus where some precious cargo was being moved.


And we even got a glimpse of things to come with our new nanny.


A fairly successful international move.

  1. Torrey,
    I heard your mom laugh on the last video! I know how excited she must be having you in Columbus! How long are you going to be there? That isn't the same cat you brought back from our house forever ago, is it???
    Is Kelli really going to be the nanny? How cool if that is so!
