Nece had a blast helping her dad plant the seeds while Franny enjoyed eating dirt and hanging out in her stroller. Nece understands there are seeds in the garden and likes to check on them... It's going to be a fun summer watching all our produce grow and being able to pick it (let's hope at least).
Last weekend, we received a call that Marc's grandma had passed away. She was 95 and very sick with Alzheimers for a long time. As sad as it is to see anybody that you love and care about pass away... we do believe this was a blessing, as the disease completely took her away from everybody and she wasn't the same lady that he and his siblings remembered growing up. Because of this, we got some unexpected family time with all the siblings and cousins. Here's a picture of all of us, and a couple of Nece with her cousins.
And we're back home again for what was a rainy and cold weekend. Saturday, we spent our day running errands (nothing fun and exciting), but Sunday we went to Grand Old Day. This is an annual festival in St Paul. Marc and I have been going for years, though, it's a bit different with kids. Prior kids, the cocktails started around 11A for a fun-filled day of drinks, sun and bands. Post kids... we get to Grand Ave by 9:45 or so, and enjoy the parade and home by noonish. Just to prove how crummy it was today... here's a couple pics that were taken. (Yes, the pics above with the cousins were taken 5 days ago... happy June in the MN).
So, that should bring you up to speed on the last couple weeks. And, while I'm at it I'm trying to think of any funny little snip-its...
- Every day when driving by the local elementary school, Nece announces "there's my skew-el" and that she's going to ride the bus with Mya, Emmie and Ju-we (Julie, that's you)
- Franny still has NOT popped that top tooth through... hopefully soon. Though I did notice she went through a mini growth spurt this week, as I've had to pull the 6-9 mo clothes out. I can't ever complain my girls didn't get good use out of clothes
- The girls had a new babysitter one day, and from what I understand... they had a ball. I knew I had nothing to worry about when I told them I had to go to work, Nece looked at me and non-chalantly said "Bye Mom". Never even batted an eye! Thanks Kim... they look forward to having you back
Off for now! Enjoy a great week!!!
Just testing
