The boyfriend of an Austin missing woman and her two-week-old baby is peaking out.

According to Austin Police, Broussard was last seen dropping off a child at Cowan Elementary on Thursday morning. Carey says Broussard was dropping off the couple's six-year-old son and that she brought baby Margot along. He says they also went to the school book fair.

“[Broussard] called me around eight something on her way home from the book fair -- said she spent $25. I was like’ that’s okay.’ I told her ‘I have to go’ because I was on my way out [to work] and I told you ‘I love you, bye.’”

The couple, who have been together for nearly 10 years, was also raising Carey's older child from a previous marriage.
