Grandpa and Grandma Visit

Over the past weekend, Kevin's parents came to visit! The visit started with an exciting event:

After an extended holiday at Mimi and Poppops (read: we forgot her on Dec. 26th....) Baby Shnookums was returned to our home by Grandma and Grandpa. Grandpa got to do the honors of presenting the missing baby......Chloe was just a little excited:


and what would you do if your baby was gone for 19 days? Feed her, of course. So that's what Chloe set out to do, all while playing with Grandma and April:

We also opened Christmas presents from Kevin's aunt and uncle who we missed over the holiday. Chloe loves this microphone (it plays songs as well as records!).
and checked out a new coloring book from Grandma:
they soon discovered it also had stickers.....

and Chloe was more than willing to share!




On Saturday afternoon, we headed to a local train museum (Alison's parents and sister met us there). Here is Chloe running one of the trains!

April seemed to enjoy looking at all the displays!

3 generations of train enthusiasts:




and when we got home, Grandpa and Chloe caught up on some railroad-reading:

and Grandma taught Chloe the value of saving.....and yes, she's putting them in her bank, and a few in April's :)


April can't talk yet, but her shirt says it all!

We had a great visit :) Already looking forward to the next one!

Camping Trips #2 and #3

At the beginning of August, we went on a camping trip with my immediate family. We had great campsites, right next to each other, and had fabulous weather. Chloe had a great time hanging out with her Aunt Laura, Uncle Bill, and Aunt Michelle: She also loved my dad's cell phone ringtone: Who says you can't eat great food while you're camping? Check out our dinner feast on Saturday night....Corn on the cob, cheeseburgers, grilled pineapple: Chloe had her first taste of the "beach" when we went to the lake one day. It was the first time she was in the sand, and I think she really liked it! When looking back at the camping pictures, I realized that Chloe wore a lot of hats on this trip: We got back from a Cousins Camping Trip on Sunday night. (Almost) All my cousins got together for the weekend and we had a great time. Another camping trip with good campsites and this time we just had okay weather. It rained Saturday night so everything was a bit soggy on Sunday ...

I hope he's not moving in....
