We have spent the last week visiting family in New Mexico. It is always so nice to get away from our everyday life. Matthew's aunt and uncle invited us up to their place. They even offered to watch Jack for a day to give Matthew and I a chance to spend a day alone. Jack had many firsts on this trip. He was a champ in the car. He hardly made a peep except for his excessive pointing out the windows at things. We rode a tram up Sandia Mountain, rode a train to Santa Fe, tried new fruits and veggies, went to the zoo and cut a new tooth. He is now really trying to say words. He will say cow, deer and ball consistently. I made a comment to him about a baboon monkey's bootie and well of course we had a repeat on the word bootie. Our trip was a blast. Matthew and I went white water rafting one afternoon with his uncle Jack. It was sooo much fun. We are already talking about going again sometime. When I get our photo cd I'll post the pictures of our rafting trip.



Now it's back to reality.
