While we were visiting, we spoiled Grandma and Grandpa by letting them witness Harrison's first taste of vegetables. Laura fed him squash, which isn't a "clear" vegetable, but Laura is the boss and she says it's fine. The verdict: same as every other new food we introduce - frowns.
Harrison had another first while we were in Green Bay - a bonfire. Craig was sitting in the basement and he noticed his mom sitting outside burning old checkbooks in the fire pit and looking lonely. So Craig joined her out there and soon enough the whole Corsten family was sitting around enjoying a fire on a warm spring afternoon.
Fun fact: In 1989 a pizza dinner at Jake's cost the Corsten family $10. We have no clue why Grandma burned those old checkbooks. They were a treasure trove of useless information.
Fun fact #2: Jake's is Craig's favorite pizza place in the whole wide world.
Harrison had another first shortly after we returned from Green Bay - he puked on another person's face for the first time ever. This happened during Jeff Suppan's miserable pitching performance in the Brewer's first game of the season, so Craig is pretty sure Harrison was just showing his revulsion with Suppan. Unfortunately, Craig was the object Harrison took that frustration out on.
With this weekend being Easter, the majority of the Franz family will be coming to visit. Laura has put together a huge list of stuff for Pete and Craig to do. Well, mainly Pete. If Craig could do this stuff himself Laura wouldn't be asking Pete to do it.
Laura and Craig are also preparing for their first extended time away from Harrison, as they're headed to New York City next weekend with Carol and Alex. Grandma and Grandpa Corsten have graciously offered to stay with Harrison for a long weekend. It'll likely be tough to be away from Harrison for a few days, but you got to cut the umbilical cord sooner or later. Craig preferred sooner.
We'll have pictures from the trip and more on the main attraction - Harrison - when we return. Happy Easter!
