Mom Comes (Came) to Visit

So when Kelsey was about 2 weeks old, Steve took his business trip to Vietnam and India. Since I still wasn't up and about all that well, my mommy came to take care of me while he was gone. I was SO grateful to have her here and this pictures are grossly overdue. Because Steve took his camera with him to India, all the pictures that we took during that time were on the Nufer camera. So here are a few of our favorites.

Mom made Joshua a cloth ball while she was here. It was her first time making one out of just swimsuit material, but we think it turned out just great! Here Josh is with half of it on his head.

Josh was a good little helper. The day after we stuffed the ball, he found the stuffing in my mom's room, pulled a bunch of it out and took it and the ball to my mom, hoping that he could help some more.

Joshua enjoys smelling everything--including grass.

After throwing a bit of a fit, Josh chose not to sit on the bench with us, but on a nearby bench.

Kelsey and me

Mom was here during her 30th wedding anniversary. All I can say is that my parents must love me to be apart during such a big anniversary! I got these flowers for her at dad's request.

Grandma and Josh built lots of lego creations during those wonderful extra hours that I got to sleep!

Since Steve doesn't know that this picture exists, I didn't have to promise him that I wouldn't post it. Josh REALLY wanted to wear this headband! Isn't he pretty? :D

I sure loved having her here while Steve was gone! It was such a blessing! Thanks mom!
