And the picture of your niece in that mask? Adorable! She managed to remove from my mind the horrible creepiness that I associate with masks like that thanks to Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman. So give her a hug for me! I can see that not all masks are evil.

Plus his carseat, which you need for him to ride on the plane? Plus your diaper bag, filled to capacity with toys, food, diapers and clothes for the kid? Plus a stroller, since you have to get the kid from the parking garage through ticketing through security through the terminal and onto the plane? (Those kids may not look heavy, but try carrying a wiggling toddler and all that other crap a couple hundred yards while judgmental people without children are eyeing you.) Do you have any luggage that you also need to carry? What about carry-on luggage for your own needs? How many hands do you have? Any piece of equipment that makes it easier to carry your kid and leave the stroller behind is fricking genius, if you ask me. We went on an international trip with two adults and two children under 3 last year that required four suitcases, two carseats, three carry-on bags and a stroller. Two adults do not have enough hands to carry all that plus hold onto two kids. We ended up buying two huge suitcases, packing everyone's stuff into them, paying $$$$ to check them. We bought two products, one that strapped the carseats onto the carry-on luggage,and one that turned the car seat into a stroller, so each kid now riding in the carseat. We ditched the stroller and bought a cheap one when we arrived. So even with bare-bones amount for traveling, we still had one rolling luggage, two carseats, one bag of stuff for kids and one bag of stuff for us.

Kudos to the woman who decided to get inventive enough to strap the kid to the carry-on. As long as she doesn't put him through the x-ray machine, I think we're in the clear. (OMG, WTF?!?) Hey.
