It's a good thing he won't remember it

Uncle Eric and Shannon came to visit us this past weekend and we had a blast. Mark and Eric decided to go hang gliding on Saturday. Unfortunately, we made a poor decision and took Jacob with us despite the fact that he does not do well on long car rides. To make things worse, the drive included endless windy roads up a mountain which was torture on Jacob's ears.

The site where they were jumping from was just a plain patch of grass on the top of Mount Tam. The view was amazing! Jacob ran around for a little bit while Mark got outfitted in all the hang gliding gear. The poor kid couldn't even have imagined what happened next. Daddy said goodbye to his little man and then ran right off the edge of the mountain. I didn't even think that this would disturb Jacob (DUH) but he screamed and screamed as Mark flew further and further away. What in the world was I thinking?? How traumatizing is that?

We did meet back up with him at the bottom of the mountain about 30 minutes later and Jacob had forgotten the whole thing. Thank goodness for baby memories.

We spent Sunday in Napa enjoying lots of wine and good company. :)
