Austin...

Jack and I took a trip to Austin this past weekend while Mark stayed home to work. I have afew kind of long but pretty cute stories about my dad...

So, I am constantly trying to figure out ways to make it easier to pack for austin (If you havent heard babies come with lots of stuff!). We left a portable crib and extra tub along with some burp cloths and bibs, a few less things to worry about. This time I decide to have my mom and dad pick up some baby food for Jack so I wouldnt have to worry about that either. I e-mailed them Jacks requests organic oatmeal with DHA, 1st organic fruits and veggie, make sure you get bananas. Friday afternoon I got a call from my dad, he had already been to 2 grocery stores looking for organic oatmeal. There was not any organic oatmeal let alone oatmeal with DHA. He thought I was playing a cruel trick on him. He had found organic bananas and would pick up some veggies at the next grocery store what ever looked fresh. It suddenly occurred to me that my father was talking about big people food and had not ventured into the baby food isle. He was able to get everyhting requested at the next store once he went to the right place.

Friday we stayed with my dad he had some alone time with Jack while my mom and I had a girls night. Saturday after Jack and I went to take pictures (they are going to be awesome!) we hung out at my dads and met my mom for dinner. Before we went to dinner I had my dad give Jack a bath while I got ready. I went in to check on them about 15 minutes into the bath. I found dad on the floor next to the tub with Jack sitting in the baby tub filled as full as it can go splashing away. Dad didnt understand why we would put him in a puddle to bathe...

Saturday we slept at my moms house, we went swimming on sunday and drove home.

Here are a few pictures from the weekend!
