The LaGreca Family

We were supposed to fly home today….but, we are still here. On Friday morning, after checking in for our Saturday morning flight, we decided to see if Southwest would extend our trip and put us on a flight next week. Once again, Southwest Airlines comes through for us, and books us on a flight Wednesday morning – and better yet, there looks to be open seats so we will probably get a row to ourselves (very helpful with the boy).

My 2nd thought about “vacation with a baby”: Mom always needs to be prepared for anything…and if she isn’t…there is always Target. It has been a MILLION times colder than we ever thought it could be in Buffalo New York in August. I packed mostly summer clothes & summer PJ’s for Nicholas..and it turns out that he needs warmer PJ’s and long pants (and he actually could have used some socks, but we have just gone without them).

Since my last post, rest assured that the eating has not slowed down. That’s what we do here..everything revolves around the next meal and the next dessert. Joe is in heaven.

I posted a bunch of new pictures in the Buffalo, NY Vacation Album. Take a look if you are interested. Here are a few of my favorites.

We made it to Duff’s for lunch one day and Joe got Wings AND Beef on Weck (2 favorites in Buffalo). Nicholas was really enjoying all the video games around…I think we need to start collecting quarters now.

We thought we would test out the whole “person in a costume” thing while we were at the fair. Nicholas was not excited. I don’t have high hopes for Mickey Mouse now…..so sad.

Ok – time for Mommy to save Nicholas. I love that Joe is still posing…in hopes of getting a nice picture.

“Nick News” – hot off the presses…it looks like Nicholas is going to have 2 more teeth very soon….finally! He has had his bottom teeth for almost 3 months now, and no real signs of the top 2 coming in. Well, I think we are just days away from seeing a top front tooth! Here is a great picture of the growing bottom two.

In honor of the 2008 Summer Olympics, Nicholas has been practicing the butterfly. Watch out Michael Phelps..we are planning to attend the summer games of 2028 to watch Nicholas beat Phelps’ gold medal record.

Joe’s cousin Mary was teaching Nicholas how to Mail-Order shop the other night. He really enjoyed the magazine, especially the $11.95 alphabet train.
