November has been a busy month for He & She & Little He. We kicked it off with a little family vacation to Tennessee, Mississippi and Alabama, to visit Erin’s family. We faced the trip with much apprehension, a total of six flights to conquer with a six month old. Why six flights, you might ask? Well, we scored cheap tickets on a Southwest deal. Thus, we were hit with a slew of layovers! One flight in, I swore I’d never fly with a baby again. Exploding diaper at take-off and over-tired screaming, it was awesome. But Linus must have heard me because he was an absolute angel for the rest of the flights! This kid was batting his eyes and cooing at the ladies across the isle! Thankfully, most of our flights had empty seats, and we were able to give Linus his own seat. WIN.
Anyway, here are some images from our adventures down south. I’ll explain as we go….

You know how every family has that one quirky cousin? Yeah….

It was so wonderful sharing a piece of my childhood with Linus. Even though he won’t remember it, I’ll have the pictures to prove he was there! Looking forward to our next adventure down South….
