Dinner Out

We took Austin out to dinner for the first time last night at Cici's pizza. Zach and I were supposed to go to Cici's with a group from the tuba studio the day Austin was born. I had been looking forward to it for days like only a pregnant woman can. It was slightly disappointing to be eating hospital food that night instead of pizza. So last night we decided I had waited long enough. Austin exhibited his best restaurant manners and only cried once, and Mama Courtney really enjoyed her pizza.


In other happenings, my mom left this morning to go back to Missouri. It felt a little like the day we dropped her off at the airport after she helped us move to Los Angeles: "Here we are, on our own for real." Except that unlike when we moved to LA, we have tons of friends here (and there) ready to help us. Still, being alone in our house as a family of three for the first time is a little daunting.

How about a few more pictures while the baby is sleeping and I have time to post?
