Austin = Texas Fan?? I think so!

Today, I was soo excited about football season (ok, we all know it is like 5 months away, but who's counting!?) that I had to sport my new sportswear. I'm not sure who was more proud...Dad or me:

My first Passover (at the Jourdan's) & with the Kanarek's

I must say my first Passover experience was great. I got presents (which I'm assuming only happened because my birthday (literally) was recently.

I also found the Afikomen (a.k.a the hidden matzoh)... was held by the Kanarek gang:

Me & Marcia

Me & Marcia, Dana, and Mrs. Spitzer
Me and Danny

Me and Monica

and even managed a quick snooze in Grandma Spitzer's arms:

So, in summary, I chalk Passover up to good food, fun people, and a rip-roaring good time!

The Infamous Bris!!!

So, I begged and pleaded, but tradition is tradition! I'm so glad so many of my parent's friends and relatives could make it though. A few pics of the process:

Uncle Louis carrying me ...

and Grandma... and Zayde...

and Uncle G!
and Aunt Dorothy.

After it was all said and done ... I was tired. Plus, I had a bit of Mogen David on my sleeve!

Austin Laves @ the Hospital

Here's a few pictures from my first day of life and time at the hospital. Don't ask me why Daddy won't upload them here, but (*sigh*) I can't talk yet anyway... (View the Album!)

Dad's pretty crazy about me. I mean, he takes videos of me just staring at him. Fortunately, I'm so cute, it doesn't matter!
