How Did This Happen??


[I love the look on Josie's face in this picture with g'pa].
No we didn't travel with this stroller, although I don't think we would have noticed with all the other stuff we had. Den's brother is finished with the stroller and left it at g'parents for us to use.

Gotta love the milk tank.

This is Eddie riding the monkey I referenced in an earlier post.



I think I have a reputation for taking a lot of photos. G'ma even commented on our second day that I had yet to take a photo. I figured I had several more days to go....yet somehow I wound up with just a handful of photos of the kids with g'parents and none of all four together.

Could it be because:
1. I shopped too much--in the afternoons when the kids napped
2. When the kids were with the g'parents, I was otherwise engaged?
3. When Eddie doesn't want his photo taken, he can be difficult to capture and it's just easier not to try.

Afterall, it's not like I locked up the camera, Den could have taken some, but still I guess I just have the reputation for capturing everything. I felt so bad as I looked over our pictures and not a single one.

We took off in such a hurry on our last day (it's a 2 hour drive to the airport) and we were nearly the last people on the plane, that I didn't even get any parting shots. To make up for it, I got plenty of Eddie with the chicks...but he is still asking to watch the cows get milked.

Piano! Piano! Apparently, every morning, when g'pa met Eddie at the bottom of the stairs (g'pa Wisc. is an early riser, whom I thank each morning for MY early riser of a son) , Eddie wanted to play the piano w/ g'pa. We brought this wonderful songbook and g'pa tried to teach Eddie 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star'.

So as we're pulling up to our home in the taxi last night, before the door to the car was open, Eddie cheerfully asks, 'go see g'ma and g'pa Ohio?'. Yay! A child who likes to travel. We cracked up.
