Gigi and Abuelito's House

As you all know the lion cub and I recently paid a visit to his adoring Gigi and Abuelito's. While at their house we enjoyed delicious food, days full of swimming and lounging, and hours upon hours of being spoiled rotten. I LOVE my parents house, it really is like its own oasis out in the middle of the desert and my parents are good about keeping teams of people around to help in any way they can.

As soon as we got home from the airport we were greeted by my little brothers, Maximus and Achilles, the most delicious tortilla soup--EVER--and a BIG glass of wine for yours truly, (Jackson is still too young to drink in case you were wondering).


The boy and I woke up late, swam in their pool and took daily naps in the hammock. By the way? Babies+hammocks+running water=VERY successful nap times :).


Swallows that live at my parents house that try and attack us every once in a while:


I'm sure you all are wondering whether the boy has either lost all of his hair or had another haircut. Well, its the latter. I get pretty tired of styling his hair on a daily basis and believe it or not his hair grows like crazy! So once again Malena (the famous hairdresser) came to the house and cut the kid's hair....I'm telling you, spoiled rotten. Though, the truth behind us 'having' to get his hair cut by Malena is because Jack has declared that "Only Malena is allowed to touch Jackson's head". So there you have it--plane ticket + private hairstylist=most expensive haircut ever.

And I know we've been talking a lot about solids recently and how we were going to wait until the 5 month mark but his abuelito couldn't wait any longer and bought him some organic sweet potatoes to try out:

He was soooo confused by them and ended up getting them ALL over himself but it was fun to try! We'll see how it really goes when we start giving him solids on a daily basis next week! Here he is after eating solids being carried around by my dad (we had to take all his clothes off because they were COVERED in sweet potatoes):

Apart from being spoiled and having the time of his life Jackson had lottssssss of visitors come over daily to say hello. I can't believe I didn't get a single picture (of any of them) but thank you to: Ms. Garcia and Nicole, Mrs. Laura Orozco, Mrs. Loya and Regina, Mrs. Martinez and the twins, Mijo and Mija and Karla, and Monica and Ms. Elsa for coming and saying hello to our little gordo. He appreciated the love and the presents :)
