Update

We made it! Matthew and Meredith were both perfect on the flight and during the 2 hour and 20 minute layover. Meredith pretty much slept the whole time and Matthew was just so well behaved-he listened so well and behaved like a little gentleman, it was so nice! During the layover I found an uncrowded area that he could "run" around in to stretch his little legs and he did great with staying near me and not getting in the way of other people. It makes traveling so much easier when it goes smoothly. Lets just hope the return flight goes as great :)
