Reading with Grandmom

My parents came to visit last week, and it was the fastest 4 days.  I think even Caroline and Ellie thought so too.

The girls had a great time playing with their toys with a new person in town to climb all over.

It rained just about the entire time my parents were here, so we had plenty of time to play in the living room and read books.

Grandmom read them the books they got for their birthday over and over and they sat there next to her for quite awhile.  To say they were engrossed would be an understatement, since their typical attention span usually tops out at 70 seconds on a good day.

There is no need for a captions on these pics to say which baby is which, because of course, Ellie is the one hogging her Grandmom's lap!

We had a great week.  The girls immediately warmed up to both of my parents as if they knew who they were from the moment they walked in the door.

My parents were in town to get their stuff out of storage here in Houston as they make their move to Anchorage.

I was so sad to see them go, but we're thrilled to get to see them in a couple weeks for Thanksgiving.

Hurry back Grandmom and Grandpop!  We can't wait to see you soon!
