My mom came to visit us this past week and help out while Spencer was in Guatemala. It was amazing having her here to help care for and love her grandkids. Grandma even stayed home with Karis and Peter while I took the big girls to swimming lessons. While Grandma was here she played many games of Old Maid with the kids, read stories, visited the aquarium and watched the Little Mermaid.
We saved the Little Mermaid for our last night together. The girls were looking forward to it all week. Grandma even brought them matching Ariel nighties. This was special for us because the Little Mermaid was my favorite movie when I was a little girl. It was so fun to watch our littles enjoy it. Ella has been humming "Part of Your World" around the house. Thankfully, Peter doesn't have an opinion on movies yet, so we got away with this choice!
We went to the aquarium on a beautiful sunny afternoon.
And Juliette wore this peach sweater every day since she got it. It is already set out on the floor to wear with her outfit tomorrow. This will be the 7th day in a row. For those of you who remember Juliette's love for her red sweater, the peach is the new red.
During quiet time Ella has enjoyed journaling with me. She came in the living room the first day of the week and said "Mom, can I journal with you. I'm studying Proverbs." And sure enough she had about 15 verses from Proverbs written down in her journal. She is such a funny kid.
And we were thrilled to meet baby Caedmon this week. Our dear friends Chris, Serenity, and Moriah welcomed baby Caedmon into their family on Monday. He is such a beautiful baby!
