The Buttonista Show

Chasing Friday is complete and it's time for a solo show to recap my first travel experience with the baby to visit my family overseas. I discuss a few must-have travel items for bringing an 8-month old on a plane, the significance and highlights from this trip and of course receiving the best news upon returning to American soil: Karen Read is officially FREE!
