Road Trip!!

April 13, 2007

We really wanted to take Jack to Chicago to see the Killer Aunts and the Great-Grandparents so here we go. Grandma and Grandpa went with us and we left late Thursday night. Jack was pretty confused when I got him out of his crib and put him in his carrier. He was a great sport. He barely made a fuss the whole way. Early Friday morning we stopped for breakfast and he sat in his pod chair the whole time babbling and smiling. He stretched and stretched when he finally got out of the carrier. We really had a good time seeing everyone. Aunt Kathy called Jack a "peanut" and Aunt Jackie thought he was just adorable. It was so fun to see Grandma Gruber play with Jack. She just loved to hold him and talk to him. We also got to take a picture of four generations of Gruber men. Grandpa Gruber held Jack for that picture, after all that is who he is named after. I think Jack really enjoyed being at Aunt Kathy's. He slept through the night the whole time we were there. Unfortunately we missed Aunt Jane by a week. She was there for Easter. I guess that means we'll have to make a trip to San Diego. I think we'll try flight for that one.
