"Two Boys" in The Tub: Busy Like A Bee

From a trip to Hawaii, to eating solids to making a lot of noise, to getting teeth and almost crawling, this guy has been busy like a bee. And yes, that's busy and not buzzy. No wonder I haven't had time to write.
Where do I begin...

Kai's first flight. When I heard that I had to go to Hawaii for work, every part of me insisted that Kai and Constant join me. I didn't give much thought to the length of the flight or that fact that I would be traveling coach rather than business class. I was thinking that I was going to HAWAII, a place that none of us had ever been before and that my boys must join me. I guess I didn't realize how aggressive of a trip this was for Kai's first flight until we loaded in Boston and were on our way to Houston. It was the wee hours of the morning on St. Patrick's Day and my Kai was dressed up properly of course in a green checkered shirt and a onesie that said " I'm a Mc Cutie". Thank God I had the foresight to dress Kai up so cute or we would have all been most likely thrown out the exit row door mid flight. Without a doubt, this flight was worse than giving birth. The flight from Boston to Houston was great, but once we landed in Houston it all went down hill. Our flight from Houston to Honolulu was delayed over four hours, Kai was overtired and overstimulated by all of the happenings in the airport. When we finally did take off in Houston, it was almost immediate that Kai decided that he wouldn't just fall asleep like in my fantasy mother world I imagined him to do. The 8 hour flight did not go as planned. Thank God for the lovely lady that sat next to us who must have had really great headphones. Kai even got a tooth during that flight! I am sure that alone describes just how horrible the flight was. The good news is, the flight home was wonderful and it was as if we brought a different child home. We had a lovely time...and together, the three of us, got to explore a new place that we hadn't been before. Next stop for Kai will be Mexico!
