The first day with family was filled with lots of joy and some big concerns. We are hoping that the doctors are able to find a way to help Great-Grandma through all of her new struggles. We are so happy that we could be there this morning and that she was able to finally meet Brendan in person. The boys got all dressed up in their snappiest outfits and spent some time with her.

The boys all held hands to go through the parking lot

At Gramma\u2019s house, Brendan wanted to rock his new cousin Rhys
\n\"342b10\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Lunchtime chaos! Ashley and Kayla and Aunt Heather arrived. We were just one cousin short of a full pallooza! (Rhys was present, just not pictured here)
\n\"342bt12\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The threesome played a lively melody on Gramma\u2019s piano
\n\"342bt13\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Caleb and Trevor wore their new tool belts from Gramma and went out on the deck to help the guys building
\n\"342t08\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Hammer high five! Twice, Caleb and Trevor tried to give each other a hug and both times they fell over and bonked their heads on something. They were good buddies today though.\u00a0
\n\"342t09\"<\/a><\/p>\n

They are really helping
\n\"342t10\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We brought Gramma a piece of the landscape from Arizona. She has to figure out where to put it. It isn\u2019t fully unwrapped yet, but it is a rock that looks like a meteorite.\u00a0\"342bt14\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Rhys really likes Aunt Heather!
\n\"34210\"<\/a><\/p>\n

If my boys were already 3yrs old, I could call these guys the three-by-threes. We wish Kieran could have been here already for \u201cflying time\u201d and ring-around-the-rosie.\u00a0\"342bt15\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Swinging with Ashley and Gramma
\n\"342bt22\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Splashing Ashley with hot tub water
\n\"342bt23\"<\/a><\/p>\n

MORE CUTE!!

Mr. Caleb-Cutie-Cake! Trevor wanted to use the flowers like hammers\"342t11\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Rhys climbed up in to the recliner to play Brendan\u2019s iGuy while nobody was watching.\"34211\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Ok, so he was sleeping, and being seriously handsome while doing it!\"34212\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"34213\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"34214\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We did bubble baths in Gramma\u2019s deep Jacuzzi bath tub.\u00a0\"342bt26\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"342t12\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Maybe a little too deep….
\n\"342bt27\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The boys were all clean and in their jammies for the drive home to the trailer, and as I hoped, they fell asleep in the car. I carried two little rag dolls and plopped them into bed without so much as a sigh or a blink. They were out cold!! We are full of gratitude for all the work and planning done by Gramma and Aunt Heather to host and feed everyone and for everyone that helped wear out the little ones tonight! <\/p>\n

It was full-of-crazy today, but it was wonderful being with the whole family and seeing everyone again. Li\u2019l K and family will be coming soon to complete the total pallooza!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
