Frankie with Great Grandma & Great Grandpa Giuliani
Originally uploaded by Critical Mess.

Anna, Frankie and I just got back from a week-long trip to St. Louis. This was a week of firsts: Frankie's first visit with Anna's extended family, his first plane ride, his first swim, and the first time his mother tried to feed him to a goat. We hit up all the St. Louis hotspots, including the Botanical Gardens, Grant's Farm, Busch Stadium, the Budweiser brewery, and of course, Steak-n-Shake.

Our vacation began with a trip to Washington, MO. for a visit with the Giuliani (& O'Connor) side of the family. Here, Frankie wins over his great-grandparents, Art & Kate.
