Having flown before I was actually relaxed when it came to how Kaylie would do. The trick is to buy toys she has never seen and pull them out as needed. Having mastered wearing her "listening ears" was also a big part of keeping her entertained. Dora will forever be a part of our trips. Overall, she did an amazing job.
You will have to excuse the picture quality...they were all taken with my phone.
Sometimes I wonder what we were thinking. Thankfully, the people movers turned out to be a success. After a little slip we quickly figured out the best way to master them. Jason would get on, turn around and help her jump on. She refused to be held and would not let us take her back pack so this was the best solution. She is turning into such a big girl!
She absolutely loved her back pack. She was so proud to take it all over the airport. She refused to leave it even to go to the bathroom. 
Already acting like a Diva. Should I worry?!?
"Flying in an airplane looking out the window..." I hate that Barney song but it helped comfort her during take off.
We decided to get into Cape Canaveral the day before so we were not rushed. It helped put us at ease and allowed Kaylie some time to adjust to not being at home. When we are away she doesn't eat or sleep well and becomes extremely hyper so allowing for some time to let it all sink in worked well.
That night we ended up going to a place called "Rusty's" for dinner. We sat on the porch and enjoyed the ocean while Kaylie played with some of the other kids at the restaurant.
The start of many, "no pictures mommy!" Apparently she doesn't like my camera.
Now that Kaylie is in a big girl bed it was some what stressful for Jason and I because we were not sure how her being in a BIG bed was going to work. She was so excited to see "her" bed and thankfully went to sleep fairly easy. We piled up pillows all around her and put her in the middle. She slept really well until she woke up the next morning and forgot where she was.
