First Airplane Ride



We all survived Claire's first airplane ride. That sounds a bit harsh, but it actually went smoothly. On the way to North Dakota, we were seated at the back of the plane with a couple of other families with small children. Claire had a few unsettling moments, but did well. The flight back to Massachusetts was a dream. Our initial flight, which would have consisted of an hour flight to Minneapolis and a three hour flight to Boston, was cancelled. Instead, we ended up flying an hour to Denver and four hours to Boston. Claire slept the entire trip, take-off, landing and all. She was incredible. Several people commented on how she was such a great baby. She really was great. In a couple of short months, she'll be in the sky again. We can't wait!

Claire has traveled the world all before her first birthday--she is so cute!!! It was fun to see you guys, I miss you already.

I think this must be a Svor baby trait - Grayson is a great airplane traveler as well (although he NEVER slept that long!). Claire is so adorable! I'm so glad we got to meet her and I loved getting to rock her to sleep.

Nice to see that Chris slept on the plane too :)

Hi Kara!
Well, because Lauren is sick with a BAD cold, we're using her lesson time to look at you and your beautiful family. Congratulations!
You are a radiant mom, and I wish you and yours the happiest Christmas season. I'll keep checking your blog for more photos. Sometimes I love the 21st century!

You wanted it, you asked for it, so here it is. A post. Hopefully this post will satisfy all your desires. I am not writing about the apple of my eye, Claire, but of the other apple of my eye--reality tv. I love it! Right now I am getting my fill of Big Brother. I have even lured Chris into my dark place. He mostly watched last season because Dick was such a jerk, but Chris is hooked. He's a dedicated viewer once again this season. Sadly, he was a fan of Matty who was kicked off a few weeks ago. I don't think I have a favorite. I find them all to be so obnoxious, yet I watch. Go figure. I obviously need some more excitement in my life. Girls who wear butt showing shorts, screaming matches, verbal abuse, crazy eyes, back stabbing, boys running around in their colored tighty whiteys (if tighty whiteys are colored, are they still called tighty whiteys?)---all in one episode! It is a gold mine. My second can't miss show is Housewives of Orange County or New York City. I really

2 weeks...

As I write this, my house is being cleaned and not by me. This is my favorite day of the week. There is nothing like going home to a clean house and smelling the bleach to know it is germ free as well. This is my second good day in a row! I took the day off yesterday. Claire didn't have school due to Fasching (German equivalent of Halloween--minus the door to door trick or treating), so I gave Mya the option of hanging out with us as well. She took some convincing, but later said she had a great day. I must admit that I was focused on giving my back a much needed break, so my morning consisted of napping and laying on the couch. Not my best parenting in action, but it did wonders for the rest of the day. We met Chris for lunch, then returned home to enjoy the sunshine before the girls' swimming lessons. It was in the 50's yesterday, absolutely gorgeous! It really is hard to believe that we made it through the entire winter with no snow. I think it snowed possibly 2 days, b

4 months

We are potentially down to our last four months in Korea. I say "potentially" because it rests solely on where we are going. If we are heading back to the States, we will most likely be leaving early June so that we can enjoy a full summer with family and have time to get settled before Claire begins school. We caught wind today of what could be our next assignment. Although it is far from official word, all of a sudden my tummy is filled with butterflies. I had the privilege of teaching a little first grade girl who was one of a set of quadruplets. They (she and her sisters) are the most delightful little girls. They are well behaved and truly beautiful inside and out. Anyway, their family was due to PCS (military move) in December. I teased her that I was going to follow her and live down the road. While they were house hunting, I continually asked if there was a neighboring house for me. She'd laugh and giggle, not really sure if I was serious or not. Her Mom thought
