We Made It!

Bill and I survived our first trip away from Henry. We went to Santa Barbara for the weekend to surprise our good friend Kate for her 30th birthday...we had so much fun and uninterrupted sleep! Henry stayed back at home with Titi and Papa and loved every second of it. They had not seen Henry since he was 2 weeks old and were shocked by how much he had grown!!! They had so much fun together and put up with our many phone calls home just to say hi to our little guy! While we were gone Henry was in seventh heaven! He was either smiling and chatting with Papa or smiling and doing tubby tummy time with Titi. My parents even claim that Henry helped make cookies and put hardware on the cabinets! I think he would have been fine if Bill and I extended our vacation for another month or two. Overall it was a a great trip for everyone. Now we just have to work on eating all the meals my mom left for us in the freezer...yummy! Now that Hnery has seen all four grandparents in less than a month Bill and I realize how important family is to have close by...we are hoping we all will live near each other some time soon. It is so neat to see your parents hold your baby...you really do realize how much they do love you!
