Wordless Wednesday: Travelin’ Man

February 17, 2010 · 23 comments

One of the many photos from my recent trip to Blissdom, these are a few of my personal favorites. My official travel buddy, Colin goes everywhere I go.

He is particularly fond of climbing into and on top of things, especially Mommy’s suitcase! This must be a boy thing, because I do not remember my girls being so challenging adventurous at this age. Something tells me I am in big trouble! {gulp} Now if only I could teach him not to chew on my coupons!

What a cutie! I love him! Man, those 3 photos on the right are especially awesome…who was the photographer!?! :)

Ridley is becoming more and more adventurous every day. He’s not afraid of much…which scares me!

Take care,

He looks so cute!!
My son started walking yesterday itself, I can very well understand the fear of ‘getting hurt’.

Take Care,
Sandy.

How adorable! He’s a very handsome little guy!

I remember my older son at that age EATING all my CVS extra bucks. It was a sad moment ;)

Love the pictures. He is getting so big!!! Will you be at BH this year? Will Colin be traveling with you?

Alyssa Francis Reply:

I think I may skip BH this year. :( NYC makes me nervous, and I can’t imagine trying to navigate it with a toddler! I will likely still be nursing as well. I am going and speaking at the Relevant conference in October with my whole family!

He is very precious! But by the looks of that little smile you maybe should ‘gulp’ a few more times. He is up to something!

So cute! I have a 5 year old named Collin also. I just recently started reading your blog and I love it!!!

So let me ask the dumb question here. What does Collin do while you’re at the conference? Do they offer a nursery? I’ve been wanting to go to the conferences but just didn’t have the heart to leave my daughter for that long.

Heather- Not a dumb question at all! Blissdom and other conferences do offer childcare, however I just kept Colin with me. Most of the time, he is pretty easy going and mellow, and he also naps in this stroller. Since I am still nursing, it is just easier to keep him with me. I can’t imagine leaving him for that long, either! There were over 20 moms with little ones at Blissdom, so nobody minded an occasional cry or baby sound. :)

Do you know, if the child care an extra $ deal or is it included? I would definitely have to put my daughter in there, she won’t sit still for anything.

It is usually an additional fee. So if you are looking for sponsorship, you might want to factor in that cost as well.

He is such a cutie.

Hey.. my husband said he overheard you all talking about how you packed only 2 suitcases for your flight. You should do a post about that (maybe you already have).
