Jeanette, Eric and Aaron came to Dallas for a vacation - er, Family Trip (we've decided that travelling with a toddler isn't really called a vacation). This was the first Family Trip that they have taken since Aaron was born at the end of January. While he seemed to be a total delight to us - easy going, fun, full of smiles, and a good sleeper & eater - Jeanette and Eric wished that he'd been a bit more of his easy-going self that he is at home (where he is apparently an even better sleeper & eater and is even more easy going and fun).
They arrived late (much later than scheduled) Wednesday night and stayed until mid-day today. Aaron is a little over 5 months now, but it was the first time we had met him. Diego and Eric played a lot of golf. Jeanette and I had some girls time away (which always involved at least one stop by Starbucks - mmmmm). Luis enjoyed everyone and everything. Our only group outing was to the zoo (a favorite of ours) on July 4th. It was HOT HOT HOT; probably about 101 or 102 and very, very humid. The quick trip ended at the Children's zoo with Luis and Aaron swimming in the stream and all of the grown ups dipping their feet in to cool off. Sunday evening, we had some of our favorite people over for a casual dinner. I was glad that Jeanette and Eric could meet our friends here - as well as the fact that our friends here could me some of our friends from "home".
Unfortunately, Luis kept getting a bit confused. It was just two weeks ago that we were in Atlanta visiting Baby Eston. So more times than not this weekend, Luis would inquire after Baby Eston, not Baby Aaron.
