Mom & Dad drove down with the airsteam this week in preparation for Mark's big move. We went out to Maumelle Park to have dinner with them on Tuesday night. It was cold outside, but the boys went out to have a bonfire while the girls stayed inside. It wasn't long until the boys saw the folly of being outside & came back into warm up!
Jennifer came out to visit too. She's been making fabulous progress on a new diet program, so she didn't join us for dinner. Dad made a new chicken recipe that involves those French's fried onion things. Brandon loved it so much he ate TWO helpings - every last crumb. We also had noodles (Stroganoff I think) and peas. Laedyn watched all the proceedings from her Bumbo seat. Don't worry, my leg was in front of it so there was no danger of her toppling off onto the floor...(yes we've heard about the recall)
Papa was entertaining the kids ... successfully at that!
Mamo brought along a couple of books. Brandon was happy to let Papa read to him ...and he was quick to add his 2 cents to the story.After storytime, we needed to get ready to go home. Laedyn needed a change, so Nick had to crawl under the table to get past everyone. Brandon thought it was pretty funny. Any of you who have been in the Airstream know how crowded it can get. Nick managed to get out eventually, Laedyn got a clean diaper AND her jammies, and we subsequently headed back to the house. Brandon ended up sleeping in his clothes that night - it was close to 10pm by the time we got home & we didn't have the heart to wake him up. The next night he asked if he could sleep in his clothes again! Silly boy.
