Grandma Bushbaker Came And Went

I promise this is the last post of gushing all over my son, but I wanted to put a special thanks out to my Mom for coming out as quickly as she did and helping out with our new baby, Jackson. This site is going to contain some really cool and useful information about stuff (most of all Las Vegas living and traveling to). If you want to check out the Las Vegas real estate market information just go to the other site maintain.

Now, when my Mom came out, we were brand spanking new parents. Adoptive parents at that! Which essentially means we had NO freaking clue what to do or how to do it. Worse yet, as adoptive parents, we had really no lead time to prepare physically or mentally for this crying baby in the house. My Mom always said she would come out to Vegas immediately upon having a new grandson or granddaughter. She did not let us down and we were VERY happy to have her around.

I have some pictures from her visit. Some she would want on the site and some maybe not. Well, I am putting what I want on here as we all know that the owner can do whatever he wants…

OK, so Mom (Cheryl) comes to Vegas and she immediately shows the new parents how to do it.

Grandma is feeding baby Jackson for the first time. Not sure if this is really the first time or not, but the sake of capturing the moment…here it is…

Grandma enjoying the little guy as much as she can . Grandma slept pretty good while here since Gail and I wanted to get up all night with the little guy. We were learning and didn’t want to miss a moment.

Mom doesn’t like to have her picture taken very much, so we didn’t get too many action shots with her and JD, but more to come at some point.

Enough already with the pics!!!!! But it is precious….check out the tat. Mom got wild at some point and put fresh ink on her arm.

Here is a photo that will be just timeless. This is a great shot and I am really glad I got a snapshot of this absolute great moment.

Another great shot of Grandma Bushbaker taking it all in. This is her third grandson. My brother, Scott, has two boys and you will see much more of them in future posts.

And finally, here is a great little story. You will see on a different post our favorite place in all of Las Vegas is Gordon Biersch at Flamingo and Paradise. This is a picture of the best bartender in town. Does he have the throwing and goofy skills you see for the tourists…I don’t think so, but maybe since I never asked. But he gives the best service in town for the locals and he is absolutely TOP-NOTCH. His partner in crime on Wed and Thurs nights is Billy (not shown). Both of these guys are the best in town and I encourage if you are in Vegas and want to hang with great local people (and some tourists) go see these guys. They are friends and this was a great picture. My Mom was very gracious to allow Gail and I a date night very early in this process. We went and visited our good friends at the bar and stayed for dinner while Grandma watched the little guy. I will never forget it…thanks Mom!
