It was sad to see Oma and Grandpa head back to Ohio. We definitely enjoyed their company and help entertaining Owen, comforting Hadley, preparing food, and going to the grocery store! The Mr. and I tried to take advantage of the help at home with a hike on our anniversary (pics to come later), dinners out, and sleeping in as much as we could. Thanks Oma and Grandpa!
Here's a look back at the last week of their visit.
We're glad they got to take a few days off to go see Yellowstone. Here's how Owen spent their time away. (Just kidding! We went to Bear World, per the previous post, on one of those days.)
We did have some record high temperatures, so Owen had fun with Oma and water in the backyard. This is not what I envisioned when I got him the water table, but I'm glad he's enjoying it! :)
More fun with sidewalk chalk. One of these days, we hope that Owen will actually draw with the chalk himself!
Grandpa relaxing with Hadley one of the few times she didn't require constant motion to be calm. (She really likes bouncing, swinging, rocking, swaying, jostling, etc.)
On a side note, Miss Hadley has plumped up quite nicely. We had to say good-bye to the newborn clothes and move on to the 0-3 month sizes. She has so many cute summer outfits; I hope she gets to wear them all before it gets too cold! She's also sleeping 5-7 hours at night for the past week, so Mommy's feeling pretty good these days! :)
The day before they left, we went to Rigby Lake, which has a sandy beach. Owen was all about the water, splashing and running and giggling. Carson (beige hat below) was all about the sand, and they did not really compromise to play together, except maybe on the playground. Owen didn't seem to mind that the water was chilly at all! We could have stayed there all day.
Obligatory group pose before departure. Owen kept saying "cheese!" so I kept snapping pictures. It's hard to get 4 people to make one good picture, so here are the best two. Thanks again Oma and Grandpa! You are welcome back anytime!
