"Austinesque"

The hardest part about being in Thailand is that I am so far from my family.  And when I say family I mean, to quote my daughter, " The cutest grand baby EVER!"  (Yes, I miss you too - Audrey, Toren, David and Mandy - but when it comes to the cuteness factor - Austin has you all beat!

In Hong Kong I picked up my little family substitute for my twin nieces, her name is Madison and she is seven years old.  She is still in Hong Kong with her family and I miss our dates. (Don't worry Madison I am coming over to visit in October!)  So it was natural that I for me to find a "Austinesque" like substitute for missing my grandson. 

What do you think....




Although fun and exciting as it was, I miss my Austin, my substitute didn't smell like "Sniff's" and was definitely not as soft.  I am almost positive that they are about as playful.  (Sorry Toren it wasn't a cougar - I could only find a Tiger to snuggle with and feed as a substitute for your SON!)  I think I better find another subsitute!

We are totally jealous! He seems to be just as ravenous at feeding time as little Austin is. I love how he's helping to hold the bottle.
