the life of baby jude

I'm back! For awhile now a Ford Family Reunion had been planned in Buffalo, in honor Grandpa Rick's 60th birthday. Aunt Jenny was going to fly out with Izzy & Ava, so Grandma decided to go, too. However, she left much earlier than Daddy, Uncle Erik and I were going to leave. Always one to enjoy a train ride, M&D shipped me off with Grandma early last week. Boy did I have fun! Slowly, but surely tons of playmates started to arrive and I got to spend nearly an entire week with my two cousins and my uncle (hee!), Brandon! They taught me a lot about how to be a big kid and we sure did have fun together. We swam and played games and even went to the Buffalo Zoo. Honestly, I can't stop talking about them. Mama missed me terribly, but I was kind enough to talk to her on the phone, albeit briefly, every single day. I know she's glad I'm back, though. I can regale her with stories, after all!
