Shit Is Hard With a Baby

Well, we made it back to the States...but I am sure most of you know that already.  Things have been crazy since we touched down and I still don't feel like we've had a chance to relax.  And unfortunately, things don't look like they will be slowing down anytime soon.  Plus, shit is hard with a baby.  Having Alessia attached to me my boob makes typing impossible. 

Our flight home was great. The day before leaving we received an email saying our flight was overbooked, but if we were willing to take another flight with an additional leg, they would upgrade us to first class.  For us, the extra 45 minute flight and 1 hour layover was worth it to be able to sit in first class for our 9 hour flight.

Overall, Alessia was perfect on the flights with the exception of shitting herself three times.  One time was even before we made it to the airport.  She had shit up her front, back, and side.  Then on our second flight, right after we changed her, she shit up her back again.  We thought we would be okay for the last flight and had our fingers crossed since we were now out of clean clothes, but her wet fart turned into a disaster as we were boarding our last flight from Philadelphia to Pittsburgh.  Since we were out of clothes, we had to put our poor girl in dirty clothes that she had worn the day before.

It took me 31 years to fly first class.

We only had a few bags. Thank you to the baggage guy for photo-bombing our picture.

Since flying into Pittsburgh less than a month ago, we have had party after party  A party for Mother's Day, a Baby Shower, a Baptism, a Baptism party, a graduation party, and a birthday party.  Alessia has made her rounds and met a vast majority of her family in a short amount of time.  She also managed to pick up a cold from someone, but that is going to happen.

Celebrating Mother's Day, Alessia's first trip to Pittsburgh, and the birth of Briggs.  

Alessia's AMAZING baby shower...or "Sip and See"

Getting baptized was hard work.  

Alessia loves her cousins already.

I know I have been a HUGE slacker with the blogging, but I promise I will get better once things slow done.  And hopefully, that is sooner rather than later.  I have tons of topics to blog about and really hope to be able to tell people what our plans are for the next season (once we figure them ourselves).
