Grandma's Visit

Grandma's Here!!!

Grandma woke up her first morning here covered in stuffed animals and surrounded by ecstatic grand kids! They went straight up stairs to see her and did not even stop by to say "good morning" to me...ha!
Liliana sat by grandma and placed her hand in hers.
Grandma spent lots of time outside playing t-ball with the kids...they took advantage and kept her out there for hours! We had 70 degree weather during her visit...wild for CT for this time of year and a great blessing!
Grandma had in her heart for months to come up and surprise Liliana for her birthday and that is just what she did! We told the kids a few days ahead though...we couldn't stand it!
Liliana turns 4!!!
We had a sweet party with many friends at church! Had I known we were to have 70 degrees we would have done the park!
Liliana enjoyed taking naps with grandma! AWE!!!
Off to Cracker Barrel for Sunday dinner!
Grandma snuck out of there with some goodies for the kids!
My belly at 14 weeks 1 day...carrying very different this time...very high...I think my face looks puffy and pregnant already...cute!
Look at Noah looking over...amazed to see Daddy on the swings...way cool!!! Grandma on the swings probably didn't impress him too much cuz dude, she is g-ma and does all cool things!
Liliana smiling from ear to ear...
Grandma was here from Thursday, March 18 - Tuesday, March 23rd...NOT LONG ENOUGH!!! :o) We hit the park the last full day she was here. and then off to my OBGYN appointment...a special treat of an impromptu ultrasound...baby is so cute and busy! It was amazing to see the elbows, feet, hands, etc of someone so tiny. The doctor tried to find the gender but baby was too busy. Liliana got to be doctor's helper....too sweet!
Check out the Dunkin' Donuts, she loves it and does not have it where she lives! We hit the drive through many times. Hop-scotch!

Noah, in a real sweet, loving, bliss-filled soft voice: "Grandma.......Grandma......Hi".
Grandma talkin' to the kids.
Liliana rockin' the outfit Auntie Heather mailed her for her birthday. Auntie Heather is Liliana's Soul-Sista!
Sportin' G-ma's glasses at breakfast before we leave to take G to the airport.
Minutes before we left for the airport.
The day Grandma leaves is always hard and sad...she leaves such a void the day she leaves because she is just so sweet wonderful! By the next day we are in our routine again and okay and looking forward to the next visit!
Thank you for coming Grandma!
We LOVE and MISS you!!!

Yay for Grandmas! Sounds like so much fun! I like the one of Liliana blowing out the candles. And of course, your belly. :)
