Flying to Boston

I've spent the day getting myself and Olivia packed up for our trip to Boston. Pete is there for work, and we're joining him for my birthday weekend.

I'm pretty nervous about flying solo with Olivia. I've packed her a busy bag just for this trip. In addition to her loveys, I packed her some really neat arts and crafts supplies that should be fairly mess free and able to do on the airplane tray.

I got her coloring books and new crayons. Some Color Wonder travel pads (farm animals and fairies) with Color Wonder markers. I packed two new board books. And I found a really neat dry erase board. It's black on one side and white on the other. I bought her some dry erase crayons to go with it. I had never even heard of these before. I love the kid craft section of Michaels!

In addition to art supplies and books, I bought Olivia her very first baby doll. She is obsessed with playing with dolls when we go to playdates, so I think she'll love having her own.

She hasn't seen any of the things in her busy bag yet, so hopefully they will keep her entertained with their newness.

I have also downloaded a few apps for my phone, but most of them seem to be just above her ability right now. We shall see.

Off to print our boarding pass, take out the trash, and head to bed. I'll post pictures of our trip when we get back!
