Ever had a child in a wedding? I've had the experience a couple of times and it can be pretty stressful and overwhelming while equally such an honor and so adorable! Today Christine, from Christine Keys , is guest posting on this topic. You can read my post today over on Wiley Adventures about why we travel with our babies as infants!
