Faux Family Camp

We took our first family vacation last week with my dad and step-mom up near Graegle, CA. For 13 years (I think) we used to go up for a week of fun and friends called Family Camp at the Feather River Inn. Well, now the Inn is closed and Family Camp is through, but some of the families still get together in the area for a week during the summer aptly named "Faux Family Camp." It was great to get away and relax, and take my new family on a vacation that I have such fond memories of while growing up.

I'm A Bad Blogger

Because I'm constantly posting pictures of Jackson on Facebook, I've totally neglected my blogging duties here. What a bad mommy! I think from now on I'll try to post the REALLY cute pictures and stories here (I know... they're all REALLY cute) and leave the rest for Facebook.

In that vein, today I was making some baby food with Jackson (he hasn't tried peaches yet, so we were making peach puree). I decided to let him taste some fresh out of the food processor and he seemed to like it. After downing a few more spoonfuls I figured, why waste a good food moment. So I pulled out some apple puree and gave him a spoonful. Well, our good food moment quickly turned bad. Too chunky puree + sensitive baby gag reflex = copious amount of baby barf. Lucky for you, I don't have pictures of the baby barf, just the impromptu "shower" in the sink that followed. I think these are probably THE cutest pictures of Jackson yet.
