This week was pretty fun!
On Wednesday, we picked up our new van! Jeremy, ever the bargain hunter, found us a good deal on a new Honda Odyssey. It's longer than our Borrego is, so I'm getting used to it, but I think I'll really like how much we can pack in it! I am aware that I am now kicked out of the Cool Mom's Club. Oh well, I was never that cool to begin with.
Thursday, Grandpop and Grammy came for lunch. Abraham had a good time playing Candyland and puzzles with his grandparents. By the end of the visit, Anna had warmed up to both of them too so they were able to take turns holding her.
On Friday morning we packed up the van to go to Emily's wedding! While Jeremy was organizing everything, Anna decided she would learn to crawl. She does an army crawl/left foot combination-but surprisingly, she goes straight! We drove down and spent the afternoon with my Aunt Kathy since we were spending the night at her house. Her granddaughter Leslie (Abraham and Anna's second cousin) was there so we played until it was time for Emily's rehearsal. Sleeping in one room went better than I expected.
Saturday was the wedding! Except for one meltdown while waiting for family pictures (because the kids were so hot), they did so well! Now Aunt Emmy is married. :) Abraham had a great time at the reception. He made sure to get Cora invited so they were able to play and eat dinner together. Jeremy brought in Abraham's Thomas take and play train set, which was a big hit. It gave the kids lots of fun things to do since the dance music was lacking.
After the wedding, we brought Caitlyn back to our house to spend a few weeks with us. Today was spent at church and buying a few things that Caitlyn will need for her stay. After dinner we broke out the Wuggle Pets that Jeremy bought on clearance. Brahm was looking forward to "playing Wuggle pets" with Caitlyn for the past month. He wants to do it again tomorrow. Good thing the refill packs were on clearance too.
Jeremy has nicely surprised me with a video to include. Here is Brahm and Cora running around at the reception.
You are still cool :)
