I just finished crying it out. this morning couldn't have gone better. the airport staff, flight, hotel shuttle, everything went smoothly. L was a dream. well behaved the whole flight. I even got a compliment at the end of the flight from another passenger that L was so quiet. :) traveling mommy gold star!
however, all I could think of the whole time was the old bill Cosby big about Jeffrey on the airplane, and how at the end of the flight his mother was so frazzled, exhausted, and just plain defeated. this is how I was starting to feel about half an hour before landing when...
...suddenly my tummy and arm were warm and wet. L's diaper had failed, and she and I found ourselves covered in pee. no changing table on the airplane, and we were about to land so the fasten seatbelt sign was on. we'd just have to deal with it.
frazzled? yes, and wet.
we get to the hotel, get her changed and fed, then proceed to attempt to get her to nap FOR THE NEXT 2 hours!!!
by the time she finally fell asleep, 10 minutes ago - I was in tears. hormones, stress, and exhaustion - since I've been up since 3am central time - and it's now noon pacific.
let's hope I can get a nap in now, and the rest of the day will be much improved.
