Grandparents Ohio






I've just given up on frequent posting. I had 3 night meetings last week and 4 nights of meetings the week before. This week Den is working 20 hour days, so it's like he's on a trip out of town. How is it that as soon as I cross 3 things off my 'to do' list 4 more take their place? I keep telling myself that if we had Cookie one more day, I'd be able to get my work done and get control over my long list. But I'm sure I'd find some other way to squander the time.


Way back at the beginning of Nov. I mentioned that grandparents Ohio came out for a visit. They watched the kids whilst we reorganzied the house. Here are the pictures they took (the ones of Josie will be a separate post because bad mama that I am, I managed to get no other photos of her from the day she turned 7 months). What is it they say about second kids? At least we have a couple photos of her.
Eddie always has a great time with g'parents Ohio and somehow, more than anyone else, they managed to get every.single.toy out -- all at the same time. Mind you, I'm not complaining, it's just I notice in these pictures it looks like our living room exploded. It doesn't take much to do that and it doesn't help that I can't bear to put a toy away lest it be one of his favorites and it will scar him forever to miss it. But, I will overcome...someday I will be able to load up a whole bunch of toys for the attic.
We are counting the days until g'parents Ohio come again. G'parents Wisc. too--but that visit is a long ways off.
