Eliza's big day out

Eliza is 2 months old today! I had to take her to a departmental meeting, unfortunately. And then we got stuck in the elevator on the way out. No, I’m not kidding. She could sense that I was freaking out, I think, so she cried a lot but eventually I was able to rock her to sleep in her car seat while we waited for help. I lost track of how long we were in there (probably not long), but it felt like forever. I’m not really claustrophobic, but it was really hot in there, and by the end of the experience, my nerves were totally shot. All things considered, Eliza and I did okay at keeping our cool, though. A memorable outing to say the least…and I’ll never get on that elevator again, with or without her.
