Edited to add: The photo!
----------------------------------
Google is thwarting my cute shot today by saying I've reached my picture limit (I'm hoping for a reset with the new month tomorrow), so I'm going to describe the picture I was going to post in words instead. Then maybe I can edit it later to add the actual picture.
Picture this:
Lucy and I, drinking smoothies at the Houston airport while Oscar sleeps, making the most of our unexpected 5-hour layover thanks to a fueling delay at the Richmond airport. Since we got up at 4am Eastern and now won't be landing in Portland until 8pm Pacific, most of us are not in the best mood. Oscar is excluded from the "most", because he was in a great mood, smiling and kicking and laughing right up until just before this picture, when he finally fell asleep for a much needed nap. Lucy was hungry but only wanted a sunbutter and honey sandwich, one of the things we did not pack. The airline had given us food vouchers but all the food options were the kind that you regret both immediately and later, then we realized that we didn't have to stay in our terminal, so we rode the train to the other end of the airport where we found the Jamba Juice we were looking for. I told Lucy we would have to remember the name of the smoothie she was enjoying so much (Aloha Pineapple), and she suggested that we take a picture to help us remember. So we did.

I get Aloha Pineapple every time. So, if she ever forgets, she can call me and I will remind her. it's the BEST.
