After mom and the girls sick all week, things were not looking up for us on Saturday. The girls still had stuffy noses; mom was still congested and started having problems with her sinuses. And dad woke up, not feeling all to well either. We were suppose to go to our niece’s birthday party, but opted to stay home. Instead, mom and dad did some things around the house. We got the playroom all set up for the girls…for that day when they start actually playing with toys. Then took it easy for the rest of the day…we need to kick this cold.
On Sunday, Grandma Shelley came over to help watch the girls so mom and dad could get some stuff done outside. It’s amazing how difficult it is to get everything completed with 2 little girls. By having Grandma Shelley there, we were able to prepare the pop-up for the summer and get the garage all cleaned out. We are starting to get exciting about camping this year. I cannot wait to share it with our girls…we only hope they love it as much as mommy and daddy.
Grandma had a great time with the girls. She was able to take them for a walk, and while doing so acquired a double swing that hangs from your deck. That’s right, Grandma comes walking up the driveway, pushing a double stroller, and carrying a green swing. Last fall I was out walking one day when a lady and her 2 kids stopped to say hi. She asked how far I was and I told her I was having twins. Well…she recognized the twins and was at one of the neighbors house that had twins girls (they are 3 now). The lady stopped my mom and said; oh I have something for them…and came out with this double swing. How cool is that!!! I’ll have to take the girls for a walk so I can hopefully run into her and thank her myself. Just goes to show you how nice people really are!
Kendall is full of smiles all the time. And she gives the best smiles. Her whole body crunches up, her eyes squint and her smile is as big as they come. She can make a crappy day into a GREAT day with those smiles of her. Sydney is a bit more reserved. But Grandma Shelley can make her giggle and throw her head back. It is the cutest thing ever. She let’s out this little squeal as she throws her head back. I LOVE IT!!!
They should be starting on our deck this week and hopefully have it done by the weekend. I just hope this weather stays with us. I’m so sick of cold and rain…we need sunshine and warmth!!! I cannot wait to get home from work, walk on to my deck with the girls and just enjoy the evening!
