Home Sweet New York??

After a nice little break from our New York reality, Miles and I are home. We missed Nathan way to much to stay away any longer!

Our trip east started about 8am central. We hopped in the truck with my parents and headed to the Madison airport. We arrived shortly before 10am. We were able to hang out in the visitor's lounge with them for about a half hour before beginning our trek through security.

While playing in the lounge, a super nice lady made a few sweet comments about my little prince charming and headed on her way. While walking around our gate, we learned that the nice lady was about to be our flight attendant! She informed us that the captain loved kids and really missed his grandson. The captain invited us on board more than a half hour before everyone else was allowed to board. Miles got to play in the aisles, climb on seats, and hang out in the cockpit for a while with the captain. Miles was having a great time! I was really wishing that my camera was in the bag I brought on board......

Our layover in Cleveland was packed with Miles finding new obstacles, discovering new hiding places, and making new friends. He was able to really tire himself out and slept a majority of our final flight back to NY.

Once back in NY, we hopped a bus to the Harlem-125th Street train station for the Metro North Line. We bought our ticket and watched for Nathan to meet us there! Miles was soooo excited to see his dad again! We rode the train back to White Plains-the whole time Miles hardly even knew that I existed. He and his daddy were in their own little world! I welcomed the little break and was super pumped to see Nathan again too!

In one day, Miles rode in a truck, a couple airplanes, a bus, and a train! He's taken his mobility to a new level! Though its sad to leave our families in Iowa, its great to reunite my own little family.

Today, we're back to work and daycare - Nate's still doing the school thing. Daycare squealed about how happy they were to have Miles back (he's every one's entertainment_I'm loving his personality) and my lab mates mentioned how boring the lab was without me. I guess I've made a good impression. Nate's schedule will continue to get tougher these last few weeks of his semester. We cannot wait until his break in August... We are surviving NY!
