This week my parents come to visit and get to know Andy a little better.  As a delightful side affect they helped out with valuable child care as Beth started her ER rotation at Hennepin County hospital this week.  We even got to spend time with one of my parents old friends and first baby sitters, Barbara.  She claimed she was still scarred from my relentless crying.  So apparently I wasn't the perfect little angle I always claim to have been, who would have known.  It was great to spend time with family and Andy is doing very well.  This weekend Noreen is arriving to help us out and in two weeks I will be leaving work for a while so I can take care of the little man while we travel.  So cheers to retirement... even if it is short lived :)
