5 countries in 11 days......

WOW...

We had such a GREAT time in Europe. Shaydon did so well on the 11 hour plane ride he even had his own seat. He slept 6 of the 11 hours and hardly fussed. I had to pull lots of tricks out of my bag though. It was nice to have so many nice people around us as well who were understanding and have been in my shoes! We had lots of complements on how well he did.

On the way home Shaydon was not as lucky to have his own seat, but we were seated in a block head with more leg room. So we made the best of it even though he only slept 2 of the 10 hours and man were we grateful for grandparents to which off with. Just like any trip it's bitter sweet we don't want to leave, but are excited to get home and that's no different for Shaydon. He totally knew we were on our way home and couldn't wait.

The hardest thing about bringing a baby is the time change, it was 8 hours different and he is a very scheduled baby. Eat, play, sleep... repeat!! So the trip changed his schedule, but sooo worth it. We have gotten back into the swing of things and were so grateful for the opportunity to go to Europe with my family. Thanks dad for letting us go. We missed you though...


The exchange rate was $1.58 to 1 Euro. So the dollar is very weak. You would get a better exchange rate if you used your credit card and then when we got to Luxembourg Franck deposited our money into his bank and then with drew euros because he gets a better rate.

I have some pix I want to post, but they are on my mom and dad's camera and they don't know how to email them.
