SOOO excited for Grandma Lori to come!!!
The other day my mom came to visit. Yes she doesn't live THAT far but hey! Any trip in this HOT weather is a daring one :) The thermometer says it got up to 108 on monday ... that would explain Gracelyn's bright red cheeks and little body soaked with sweat! I can't wait to go up to Utah soon... it may not be snowing there, but at least it won't be in the TRIPLE DIGITS!!! or so we hope ;)
Anyway, Grandma Lori came to visit and brought a new toy with her. A blow up baby pool! We filled it up with lots of little squishy blocks and she has a ball rolling around in them! I am sure it will be used soon as a pool in the backyard but for right now I love the playpen... uh I mean new activity center for her. She does this new thing where she gets up on all fours and rocks a few times until TAKEOFF she throws herself forward...almost like a belly flop :( I am so glad she now has a padded area to do that in since we have wood floors and she has already gotten bumped here and there. Our plan is to eventually make it a ball pit... we are just searching right now for a big bag of balls for a decent price. So they enjoyed their day with each other. Gracelyn loved sitting in Grandma's lap and playing with the blocks. She was teaching her to count and talking about the colors... my mom always wanted to be a teacher... and with all her experience with being a nanny and working in sunday school at church, she is a great one :)

They have a big bag of balls at Toys R Us, but I don't remember how much they were!
That is an AWESOME idea to use a little blow up pool for a play pen.
Awww, my sister is a genius! :) I agree, she is a fabulous teacher. She's very loving and patient and you my dear Mandy have all of those qualities. Sending you a big hug...see you soon!
