Visit from Nana and Papa
October 1, 2007 | Travels
We started off our visit by trying to take a family portrait. We couldn’t get Papa Luis and Big Ben to smile at the same time (and smile with teeth), but the women and little Ben looked fabulous of course!
Then we went to Lily’s gymnastic watch day. Her teachers reported she loved learning the advanced moves and has a sense of pride at accomplishing new skills. And she is just so darn cute!
Papa Luis took us shopping and made us chili, and Nana was the new playmate for the kids! They loved it!
We found the kids some nice bunk beds at a yard sale and put them up on Saturday. Benjamin loves climbing up and down, and throwing stuff up and down, and ended up sleeping on the top, since Lily invaded his bed on the bottom.
Benjamin holds hands with his friend, Logan and they walk to nursery together. Benjamin accidentally ran into another small child in the hallway, and I heard him say, Sorry! It made he and his friend giggle. And I was so impressed to finally hear him talking! His vocab is finally exploding.
Benjamin also gives Lily a big hug when she comes out of gymnastics. They can be so sweet to each other sometimes, when they are not making each other scream. Well, enough said.
love, Julie
