The Cavanaugh's All Grown Up; Book 2 of the Spoby Ever After Novels

Chapter 25 Penelope & Charles

Penelope and Charles

It is 2 days later and Penelope and Charles are heading home with their baby girl Alice.  They had a great time visiting Spencer and Toby but are excited to get home.  On the flight here things went pretty good.  Penelope was paranoid the whole trip though, she was worried that Alice would end up getting sick because of her really weak immune system.  Lucky she didn't on the way there, now their both hoping she don't on the way back either.  Right now there were sitting at the gate for their flight.  The little newborn Alice was sound asleep in Penelopes arms and she was sitting next to Charles waiting to board.

Charles looks down and smiles "She's so cute when she's sleeping" He smiles and looks up at Penny

Penny nods "I agree, she looks so peaceful."

"She does, I wish I could just fall asleep anywhere like she can" Chase laughs and Penny laughs too

"Me too"

"Hopefully she will stay asleep most of the flight, because as long as shes asleep theres less of a chance of her being fussy, or getting sick" Chase says

Penny nods "Very true, because we don't want either of those."

"Right" Chase smiles and leans down and kisses Penny, she kisses back and then smiles

"Flight 368 to Boston now boarding section A" An announcement is made

"Thats us" He stands up and grabs the diaper bag, and the carry on bag and Penny stands up holding Alice close as they get their tickets scanned and they board the plane.

Chase put the bags in the upper compartment except for the diaper bag which he put under the seat in front of him so they had easy access to it. 

Penelope had a carseat for Alice on the plane and put it by the window carefully laying sleeping Alice down in it, while she sat in the middle, and Chase to the left of her. 

The flight was going pretty well, until about an hour in when Alice wakes up crying because of her ears. 

With the elevation the plane has to go to the air pressure tends to plug peoples ears, adults and older children are able to unplug them by swallowing, but babies and young children don't know how to do that on their own which in returns leaves a ton of pressure build up in their ears, and it really hurts.

Penelope sees her and frowns picking her up "Aww baby mamas here" She says rocking her but she wouldn't stop crying

"Could you get her to shut up!" An older lady turns around and says meanly to Penny and Chase

"Excuse me?" Penny says not happy

Chase puts a hand on Penny's shoulder signaling her to stop

"I'm sorry M'am were trying the best we can, i'm really sorry"

"You better be sorry! And you better get her to shut up too!" She say rudely until her husband makes her turn around

"I'm sorry" He says to us and we nod

"It's okay I understand" Charles says

"I'm trying to get her to stop I'm sorry" Penny says

"It's okay" He says and turns back around

Another lady behind them about the same age as Penny taps on her shoulder making her jump.

"Sorry" She says

"It's okay" Penny says not upset

"I wanted to tell you to try feeding her, shes probably crying because her ears hurt, if she's eating it will allow her to unplug her ears because shes swallowing." She tells us
