Whoa! Renovations

We are redoing our floors right now, but my parents are doing quite a but more with their house. One of the changes that happened between one visit and the next was that they had a new fridge and new stove put in. I knew about it, but didn't tell the kids. When they arrived at my parents' house, they went into the kitchen like they always do. Before Grammy and I could join them, we heard shouts of: "Whoa!!" and "Wow!!" and "Come look at this!!" Laura ended up jumping up and down and flapping her hands for the next five minutes as Grammy showed her all the cool features of the fridge, and how to work the ice and water dispenser. 

David in his element:

Sitting on the counter at Grammy's house with a big bag of cheezits while Mommy, Aunt Z, and Grammy all work around him and Grandad makes faces at him from the doorway.

We already know...

A: Grammy said to tell you girls "hi" and that she loves you.

L: But we already know she loves us.

A: Yes, well, she just wanted me to remind you. 

New dresses

Today, the girls got their dresses that Grammy ordered from the craft fair a couple weeks ago. David just happened to be wearing blue stripes already. He wasn't too thrilled about taking a picture, though. 

Grammy and Zina taught Laura and Karen how to make reindeer cookies!

Be patient, be patient, don't be in such a hurry...

Laura: Mommy, I want a baby.  Adriel: Because you just held baby Xali and you want your own baby now? Laura: Yes. Adriel: Well, David will be here soon enough. Laura: But I want him now. two hours earlier: Ceil: Have you had David yet? Adriel: Considering that you're the first one I'll call because you have to watch my kids... Ceil: No. I'm going to be at the hospital. But you'd still better call me first. Adriel: I always call you first. Why are you so impatient? Ceil: Because, I want David to come before the family reunion, so you can come show him off with me. Adriel: You know, Keith is praying that he'll stay in a long time and not be premie. Ceil: Bah. 36 weeks is long enough. He needs to come. It's hard to decide who is more impatient: Laura, Ceil, or Adriel.

Karen said, "I tattin gemmy." (I'm talking to Grammy) With her Radio Shack Air War game from 198?

Watching a seal cross the sand, L: My seal's named Grammy!!

In church, KJ kept looking at Grandad, then Grandma Barb, then Mrs. Debbie, then Grammy's empty chair. #confusedlook
