I know I've been remiss in posting. Between holiday travel and working on a business plan for my Lorie-rules-indie-film schemes, I've been keeping my head down to stay focused.
Travel to Grandma Susie's alone with Audrey went fine. Audrey was great - there and back.
My mom has choice words (justifiably) for Northwest Airlines, though, since they wouldn't give us a pass through security on Christmas day for her to help me with carrying Audrey, a stroller, a car seat, a big diaper bag, and a little rolling suitcase to our departure gate. And, to add insult to injury, the security screener-checker guy singled me out for the whole search-and-kaboodle. Open all bags, wand us, pat us down, the whole nine yards. The security folks were nice and pleasant, and I stayed calm and upbeat, b/c a) what can you do? and b) Audrey was looking at me and them like, 'what are you doing to my mom? And, why are you now touching me??'
Just wanted to check in and say Happy New Year.
Must go to bed now... But, I'll post some pix and videos this week. Really.

I vividly remember (and feel the pain of) a 1am trip down O'Hare's long walk to the baggage claim (we were the last gate, of course) with two carry ons and an exhausted kid who insisted on being carried too. I couldn't do it. Halfway there I just stopped. A very nice lady was kind enough to take my bags for me.
It's rough traveling solo with kiddies.
