The flights: We flew from San Jose to Boston to Richmond. We (Bertie and I, Aaron stayed home) had a red eye to Boston. Bertie did pretty well, he slept most of the flight. Follow passengers commented on how well he did. (Our flight was only 2/3 full, so the middle seat in our row was empty). He was awake when we got to Boston. I changed him, and there was a little playground right by the bathroom, so he got to play for a few minutes. He loved looking out the windows at the planes and trucks. The flight to Richmond was really empty, there were maybe 20 people in a 96 seat plane. We had a lot of room, which was good, because he would not sit still.
Sleep: Mr Bertram has not been sleeping very well. He's having separation anxiety about sleeping in an unfirmilar place. I've been waiting in the room while he falls asleep, which seems to help. He's been napping in the car, or on one of us (me, my sister, nana or papa). This morning my sister came and took Bertie at 7am, so I could sleep. (Happy mothers day!)
What we've been up to: Lots of visiting, and just hanging out. We went to see Nanny, aunt Debbie, uncle Martin, (cousin) Abigail, and her hubby Nick. We're going to see the other Pace's tomorrow. Rebecca stayed at my mom's house all week so we could hang out. We've been having a lot of fun. My mom bought a paddle pool for Bertie, he's used it almost every day. He loves it! Today Rebecca and I went to Duck Donuts. All the donuts are made to order: meaning the fry them when you order, and do the toppings right them. I got Bertie a plain glazed, and I had maple bacon. O.M.G. It was the BEST donut I've ever had! After that we went to her apartment to use the pool. It wasn't super hot, and the pool was a little cool. But Bertie had so much fun. He is a water baby.
