HELP! I'm going to Canada by myself with my 2 little girls! I'm a self-proclaimed SUPERMOM, I pat myself in the back, for my ability to multitask and get things done, but my secret weapon has always been GRANDMA.
Now you may ask where am I going with this? My best freind is getting married in Canada! I'm the maid of of honor, my 2 year old daughter is a flower girl and my freind made me swear to bring my 1 year old too since she haven't met her.
Now when I picture this trip in my head I just want to scream aaaaaahhhhhhh! It would be my first time traveling by air with both my 2 year and my 1 year old. I do have a double stroller I can strap them in and wheel them around the airport, but I'm thinking about luggage, car seats, distraction for them... head is spinning.
I check some available flights I still haven't seen any straight flight to Montreal from Palm Beach. I found one flight with a 5 HOURS layover. I'm so NOT booking that one. Can you imagine? I would be running around this place like a chicken with her head cut off. I could keep them strap in the stroller for 5 hours... They would probably be crying so loud airport security would escort me out. Well I have to go find my travelingmom cape and super power potion that's going to get me though this trip.
you got any better advice? well do tell!

It is not easy traveling with toddlers, even when Grandma is there to help. If you can't find a direct flight then plan to walk around during the layover. There is a lot to see and they will need to stretch.
There are tons of packing tips on TMOM, so pack well: food, extra clothes, bottles, diapers - expect delays that way you will be prepared.
Forget your nap schedule. just go with it. Buy a toy they have never seen b4 and whip it out if things get crazy.
When all else fails, remember to breathe. That is one thing you have control over.
