G'parents Ohio

G'parents Ohio came out to visit on the ocassion of G'pa Ohio's high school reunion. They agreed to come a day early so Den could take another work trip. As we got closer to the time he was leaving, I grew more nervous about how I could do in the middle of the night, nursing, then burping (which is not my strong suit) and then staying awake long enough to remember to change a diaper. It went fine, but I sure was tired each morning.
It's funny that now with 2 kids, g'parent visits don't seem nearly long enough. When Den's parents were here, we actually asked them to extend (for medical reasons--my recovery was still in progress) and this time, I almost begged my parents not to leave. Short of throwing a tantrum on my front lawn, it wasn't enough to keep them.
For one thing, it's fun to watch Eddie with all the g'parents. He interacts differently with each one, but has fun with them all the same. And, it's nice to have other people around to give Josie attention and remind us of how to care for a newborn.
As Josie is getting older, her hairline is giving her away in photos. It used to be she looked identical to what Ed looked like at her age, but she has less hair and a smaller forehead now.
Sacked out! Josephine was so comfotable. We actually made g'pa wake her up though--I can't remember why, but it was criminal and she had been out cold--it was actually a bit difficult to rouse her.


Every now and then we can get Ed to cooperate for a group photo...
