| Description | Andrew and Tremaine discus the family’s first international trip with Parker. They talk about what went well, what went poorly, what they did predict and what surprised them. Parker was an international baby of mystery by the end. The BabyBjorn Bouncer is reviewed and dinner “entertainment” referenced. With Thanksgiving coming up In the US there is discussion of Thanksgivings gone by.
