Fun with Grammy & Grandpa

When family comes to visit it always makes me wish we lived closer. I probably sound like a broken record, but it's nice being able to spend time with them. My parents took the opportunity to come up for Christmas and how grateful we are that they did! When then first got here Everett really didn't want anything to do with them. It was kinda sad/funny. He saw them and then went and hid behind me. I don't know if he thinks they're going to take them away or what. But that's kinda why I wished we lived closer so he'd get to see family more often and not be so afraid!

Of course he began to warm up to them. We spent the week shopping, hanging out, snacking, and playing. Everett LOVED Grandpa. He'd have him read books to him. He know Grandpa was the one to be by whenever we went shopping. He gained a nice little sleeping companion with Grammy. They slept in the same room as him and one night Everett didn't want to stay in the crib, so Grammy went out and snuggled with him on the couch. They became quite good friends.

He found Grandpa's solitare game and was sooo excited!

After we said goodbye and saw them off we came home and asked Everett "where's Grammy?" Normally when we ask him this he looks at the computer cause we Skype with them every week. He knows that's where we talk to Grammy. Well this time he puts his hands up and starts looking around. It dawned on him that they weren't there anymore! It was pretty cute.
