We went to Hawaii last week to visit family and relax a bit. This was our second trip with Henry and it was great to spending some time with him on the beach playing in the sand. When traveling I like to use a backpack as a diaper bag and carry-on since I can easily wear it on my back while I carry Henry in the Ergo 360 through the airport. I pack diaper changing essentials in a zippered pouch so I don't have to carry the whole backpack with me to the tiny airplane bathroom. I like to bring an Aden and Anis swaddle blanket because they are so versatile. I can use it as a nursing cover, burp cloth or a blanket if the plane is chilly. Henry's favorite toys are with us too so we can keep him entertained. And, of course, we can't forget his monkey.
Henry slept most of the flight to Hawaii and the entire time on the way back. I guess there is a benefit to taking the red-eye. We were lucky and ended up with an entire row to ourselves, which was awesome because we had more room to spread out. Henry thought it was so cool to sit on the seat by himself for a little bit while we were at cruising altitude. I read these tips in preparation for our trip, I found them really helpful, especially number 9.
