[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]We bought an extra carseat to live at the grandparents’ house.[/b] The flight is shorter than 5 hours for us (if direct), but I have made the trip with and without DH since our first was born. The kids are in school now, but in a typical year, we travel to see the grandparents 2-3 times a year, and DH usually comes for one of those times (& we usually drive now, about 12 hours). Before they were school age, I took him/them more frequently, often by myself. [/quote] +1 Traveling concerns aside, do you want to and can you afford to go more frequently? Because if so, look for tips to make traveling easier. We have car seats and a pack and play the grandparents house and my mom picks up a Target order of diapers/wipes for me. 2.5 is getting into a good age to be occupied for longer stretches - my youngest is not quite 2.5 and imagine ink, kindle, snack, and stickers covered our 3.5 hour flight last week. I had more in her backpack, but she was fairly content. I even read for awhile. You can do this - if you want to.[/quote]
