On Monday we got back from a great week visiting family and friends in upstate New York. Unfortunately for now, this is a pictureless post. Believe it or not I forgot our camera, Matt forgot it as well (he arrived later than us), Grandma's camera broke, and the pictures on Nana's camera got erased. I know Aunt Becky got a few great pictures of all the cousins on Sunday night so those will get added to post when they are passed along. But for now, enjoy these great summer stories...
For the first time ever Liam and Anna really played together. So we've been saying that they played together for 3 years now, but this week they really hit if off. They sorted through memory cards to find matches together, pushed around Liam's car & wagon together, went for a wagon ride at Nana's together, read stories together, and had a pretend picnic together. And of course now that Kieran is speeding around with his crawl and Abby is running around, they joined in too. It was fun to watch them all play, hug, chat, (fight), and just have fun all week.
Anna & Abby had a great time with some usual favorite activities at Grandma and Grandpa's house. They marched around the house in a parade (one time when Anna decided it was time to stop the parade Abby kept going by herself for 5 more laps - so cute!), played hide-and-seek, went swimming, and played with the little people for hours. Anna enjoyed some special time with Grandma each morning (she told me not to come downstairs with her when she got up because she wanted to hang out with just Grandma) and some special time with Grandpa each day playing Cootie Bug and other games in the basement.
Anna had a special activity this week - she slept over at Nana's house by herself! She was so excited to come to Nana's house with her packed back pack. She walked in the door and raced up to her room to unpack all her stuff. She had a great time playing train, getting her toenails painted, and going out to breakfast the next morning.
Daddy had a great weekend spending time with his friends from college in their annual trip to Saratoga. And Mommy had a great week just relaxing, playing cards with Daddy, Chris, and Uncle Dan, and playing twilight croquet with Grandma and Uncle Dan - who has found a new swing that, "is really working for him." Unfortunately, we missed Great Grandma Jane and Aunt Diane this week since Great Grandma broke her hip :( But she had a successful surgery and is getting better each day :) Feel better soon Great Grandma Jane!
