Traveling with Children, Yikes!

I’m not the brightest girl in the world when it comes to planning trips.  I keep planning trips all the way to the east coast from Texas.  Just me and 3 children!

The first time is when I flew from Dallas to Savannah with a 4mo old, a 2 yr old and an 8 yr old.  I really thought it would be a piece of cake to fly there instead of drive.  I had Emma in a sling, Lauren in a stroller and then Morgan there to assist.

I didn’t think about trying to hold onto an infant, a toddler and keep my eye on Morgan as I tried to collapse the umbrella stroller on my own.  Did you know not one person stopped to assist me.  I even had my carry-on bag for diapers and no one…not one person ever offered a hand.  I couldn’t believe it.

I also did not factor in the changing of flights in Atlanta.  Talk about a nightmare.  15 min to travel from one side of that humongous airport to another toting 3 children.  Not fun.  Next time I’m taking a friend.

Or what about the time I thought it was a great idea to drive all the way from Dallas to Savannah in a car.  Just me…and 3 children.  Thank God I have some amazingly behaved kids.  I never would have survived if I had “those kids”, you know the ones you look at while out shopping and realize just how lucky you are.

Next time I fly I am going to get someone to make my arrangements for me so that I can have a flight that is non stop without paying an arm and a leg.  I would even give my arm and leg to avoid switching flights. Next time I will contact a company like JetSetVacations to handle it all for me.
