Nana and Papa Visit


Dale and Vicki came back for two weeks and we were so happy to see them! They have been living in Germany since July and won't be back until next summer. We got a lot of family time in and some great babysitting for my first week back at work. Knowing Eden and Judah were with them made going back so much easier!

We got to see a lot of Harper, which was fun for all of us, but especially for Eden.


We weren't sure if Eden would remember Nana and Papa (even though she loves talking to them on skype) but after a few days she was running to the door when they came over! I'm sure Judah will be doing the same thing in a few years...


Nana and Judah



Its always fun to watch Eden play with Harper. Harper is such a good sport and Eden just soaks up everything Harper does. Here she is watching her spin (she started spinning about 2 seconds later). Harper did a great job of wearing Eden out...she was ready for bed by about 6 every night (too bad we didn't put her down until 7 or 8 when she was super crabby!)

We can't wait to visit Nana and Papa in a few months!

Snow Day



We got our first snow last week. Last year Eden didn't really get out in the snow much, but I think this winter will be a lot more fun! We woke up to a few inches of snow and it fell in big flakes all day! Eden and Luke built a snow man and had a snow ball fight (ok, Luke threw snow balls at Eden). Eden mostly liked to eat the snow...good thing it was fresh! Judah and I took the time to snuggle and watch some t.v.
The snow is mostly melted now but we are supposed to get another storm this weekend...it might be time to get some snow pants!

Surprise!


About a week after bringing Judah home, Gatsby our tiny cat, went crazy. It was the middle of the night and she got under the covers on our bed and was meowing constantly. Luke put her outside because we were both sleep deprived and listening to a cat all night was not an option. The next morning she knocked a pile of blankets out of our hall linen closet. As I was cleaning it up she kept meowing at me and pawing the drawer. I pulled it open and Suprise! there was a kitten!


The kitten (we think it's a boy) is super cute and Eden LOVES it! She stops and waves and says hi about 1,000 times a day. I think they will be bff soon....
