Au Revoir Momma!

My parents were in town this past weekend and we celebrated Mother's Day with them. It was a bittersweet celebration since the reason for my parent's arrival was to take our little cub back to El Paso with them for a whopping 10 days. They will be watching Jackson while Jack and I take a vacation to Paris, Brussels and Amsterdam.

While I am thrilled to go to Europe for the next few days I am sad to leave my sweet boy behind. I was worried he'd think we were abandoning him and he'd never forgive me but as is turns out he has abandoned me....

Well, not exactly but while my parents were here, Jackson became ENAMORED/OBSESSED/OVERJOYED with my dad. To the point that he didn't even want to come with me! If you've hung out with the boy recently you know he only wants his momma....well, now he only wants his 'abuelo'. Abuelo has become his new favorite word and his new favorite person. When we packed him up in the car at 4am on Sunday he was only crying because Abuelo wasn't in the backseat with him, (not because we were leaving him or anything).

So I think it's safe to say he's in GREAT hands. Thank you mom and dad (and 1/2 of El Paso) for watching him, and I leave y'all with some videos of Jackson hamming it up at dinner Saturday night. You'll hear him say 'abuelo' (grandfather) 'vamos' (let's go) 'dos' (two...but he uses it to mean 'down') and 'byes'. He's getting pretty good at this language thing ;)
