Ryan goes to Texas to see her Great Grandma Pegs!

This past weekend was terrific in so many ways. Ryan took her fourth plane ride and Dad learned that traveling by yourself with a baby is a nerve racking experience (wow!). She was a doll on the way down (slept the entire flight) and then cried throughout the Love Field airport. The main focus of this trip was to introduce Ms. Ryan to her Great Grandma Pegs (Margaret Stiff). Pegs is a LOYAL reader of the blog, an amazing woman, mother, grandmother and great grandmother many times over. Pegs is about to be 98 years young and sharp as hell. I can't say enough about how truly magnificent this special lady is - trust me...she is on the ball and then some! We also got to see Grandma Ella (my mom). Ryan cleaned up at the toy store with Ella and had mucho fun at bath time. Here are some pics from the trip!

You look good next to those colors!

Air-drying is the way to go, especially if you have diaper rash!

Can I sleep here?

We went to Highland Park Pharmacy for lunch -- I slept most of the time but did wake up to smile at Grandma Pegs. The Pharmacy has been around forever, my grandparents went on dates there back in the 1800's, or something like that...

Saying goodbye for now...
