Hancock is a hit!

My mom bought TBL a soft beanie baby stuffed monkey today which we named Hancock. She bought it at the airport while we were waiting to go through security and the Syracuse airport is named Hancock International Airport so TBL and I decided we would name him Hancock. The trip was pretty uneventful. TBL did fine on the first flight. I wisely packed a few bottles with milk in them for a quick snack on the plane if he was fussy because it is an ordeal to breast feed on the plane and takes me a bit to be situated. He didn't cry much at all on the first flight; maybe for a total of about a minute. He slept well and smiled a lot at the young guy sitting next to us. In Detroit, we walked and walked and walked and Mommy had some sushi and she got a diet coke and we walked and walked some more. On the way to our gate after our long walk, we ran into two friends from high school who married each other and have two kids. I haven't seem them since high school; I don't remember them at our 10 year reunion but we have recently found each other on Facebook. It was a delightful surprise and gave me the much needed friendly face, energy and hug to continue my journey. TBL finally fell asleep for a bit during our layover with Hancock keeping watch. Our next leg to Cedar Rapids was a bit longer but he nursed well and slept for most of it. He did a worse job of charming our neighbor because he kept farting and it was really smelly. He cried for only a few minutes and calmed down quickly so that was good. He was happy to see Daddy and on the way home we stopped to pick up Nile at the golf course. I put Hancock between his feet to look at him and this is what happened.
He started picking up Hancock with his feet and moving him all around. It was so cute.
big smiles



Hancock is a huge hit and has been well loved during his first day with TBL well at least well loved by his feet.
