Fun with Gigi!

Here is Jack and Gigi at dinner. Gigi says it's like taking care of Chris all over again. He does look a lot like Christian...except that at this age Chris had a full head of blond curls.

Gigi came out from Chicago to visit Jack (and us, I think) about 2 weeks ago. She was able to stay for 5 days so she got a lot of QT with Jack....which was the intention. She came at the perfect time because she got to see Jack doing some new tricks....he started walking a lot, said a new word- ball, and really enjoyed the pool for the first time. It's so awesome when Jack has family around to experience these types of milestones. And I'm sure she was thrilled to be able to witness it all. We're so happy she could make the trip...but we missed Papa!

Jack and Gigi had a great time playing and hanging out together. She took him on long walks every day which usually resulted in him falling fast asleep...she just has the magic touch with babies. We had a really nice weekend relaxing, eating great food, blowing bubbles, shopping and going to the pool. And mommy and daddy got a much needed date night! I know Jack was sad to see her go....the day after she left Christian was asking him where Gigi was and he was looking all over for her. But we'll see her and the rest of the family here for Jack's big birthday bash in a few weeks.

Thanks Gigi for coming out and visiting us and taking care of Jack! We miss you and love you!

After dinner we went to play in the fountain. After months of screaming in the bath, Jack has a new found love for water.

Bored with the water after a few minutes, he zeroed in on Gigi's glasses. The kid loves to accessorize...or should I say, EAT accessories. My bracelets are his faves.

Pool time! I had to go old school and make the white sunscreen line on his nose like when I was a kid. He looks thrilled doesn't he?
(Side note: Who thinks Chris looks like a lost member if the Bee Gees?!)

Jack let Gigi take him into the water sprayer.

Great pic of Gigi and me...not so sure about Jack! But he was having a great time, I swear.
