T minus 24 hours

It's 3:40 PM on Tuesday. I am boarding a flight to Seattle in less than 18 hours and I haven't even packed yet. Procrastination, unfortunately, was always my strong point.
I am both excited and anxious. Excited to see everyone and anxious about the flight and time change for the little man.  We all know how I love my sleep and he sleeps a solid 11-12 hours a night and I am hoping it stays that way on our journey.  At least he had too good poops today so I am hoping he won't be a crank tomorrow on the flight. The flight is full. I keep checking on United's website. I was able to upgrade to their economy class or whatever they call it for the trip back but for the trip there I am stuck in the way back in coach.  Oh well, we'll just have to deal and hope it goes well.
Funny thing about this whole trip is that friends of mine from Brooklyn are going to be in Seattle the same time I will so I might see them. I haven't seen them in years and they live an hour away but we might hook up 3000 miles away instead. Very funny how things like that work  out.
Anyhoo... I better start packing and doing wash.
See ya soon Mt Rainier!

The FITS!!

Holy crapolly! Enough already! I don't know what it is. I am trying to be more observant in what I eat in correlation to his fits but I just can't figure it out.  I am freaking out though that he is going to have one while we are on the plane and it will be a disaster! Snot and sweat everywhere! Oh please Luca be a good boy for mommy and United flight 409!
He isn't big on naps during the day. He fights them which is weird because he is pretty good at going to sleep at night and he does sleep 11-12 hours so I really shouldn't be complaining about anything.  Even when we go out he doesn't nap that much anymore. That use to be the go to when he was really bad. Put him in the car seat and he would be out before you left the drive but not anymore. I guess this is only the beginning of all the changes that are going to come while lil man grows up.
What a set of pipes on this kid and he gets so mad! I guess that is the Italian/ Sicilian blood in him. When he gets upset or scared he makes the cutest sad face and all we can do is laugh at it! His mouth goes down and he starts to frown and furrow his brow. It is so cute and funny!
Well he finally fell asleep. He had been crying and yelling on and off for over an hour now. The mamaroo didn't work so I put him in the K'tan baby sling thingy and he is passed out. Guess I'll go watch tv cause there isn't much else I can do with him in there.
