Haven't flown in a while, here's the skinny on the new regulations:
3-1-1 for carry-ons = 3 ounce bottle or less; 1 quart-sized, clear, plastic, zip-top bag; 1 bag per passenger placed in screening bin. One-quart bag per person limits the total liquid volume each traveler can bring. 3 oz. container size is a security measure.

For the Hijabi Jet-Set there are new-new guidelines for head coverings:
All members of the traveling public are permitted to wear head coverings (whether religious or not) through the security checkpoints. The new standard procedures subject all persons wearing head coverings to the possibility of additional security screening, which may include a pat-down search of the head covering. Individuals may be referred for additional screening if the security officer cannot reasonably determine that the head area is free of a detectable threat item. If the issue cannot be resolved through a pat-down search, the individual will be offered the opportunity to remove the head covering in a private screening area.

And the TSA is kind and gentle with the kiddies:
We specially train our Security Officers and they understand your concern for your children. They will approach your children gently and treat them with respect. If your child becomes uncomfortable or upset, security officers will consult you about the best way to relieve your child's concern.

And the big thing I need to do? Psyche myself up for the hurry-up-and-wait, hurry-up-and-wait, hurry-up-and-wait that modern travel by airplane has become. But don't feel sorry for me, feel sorry for Yaty, she's got to put up with me.
