Grandpa pulled into town last Thursday. After gymnastics Thursday night, we immediately went to Grandpa's house to say hello. Jordan and Katelyn were so excited to see their Grandpa.
I call Friday "Pretty Dress Day" at the girls' school. On Friday's, they can wear whatever they want instead of the uniform. I thought they looked so cute going to school on Friday that I had to take a picture. Jordan wanted to wear her tiara and I thought, "OK, she is only little once. Let her." She wore that crown all day at school is what her teachers told me.
My babies. They are just too darn cute I think. Jordan got into my make-up drawer and put on pink lip gloss. No, she is not allowed to wear it. I knew it would rub off before she got to school and she had fun playing.
Waiting for swimming lessons Saturday morning... Jordan insisted her Grandpa come and watch her lessons. It is funny how excited she is that he is back.
Jordan swimming on her own!
All done with lessons! Grandpa helping Jordan dry off.
After lessons, Jordan went to her friend Alyssa's house for a play date. Dad, Christopher, Katelyn and me met Jill and Marty at Abuelo's for lunch. Jill wanted to see our Dad now that he is back. It was a fun lunch and Katelyn loved having all the attention to herself. Of course, right when we arrived the first thing she did was have her Uncle Marty hold her. They have a special bond.
After lunch, we were standing outside talking before leaving. Please note where Katelyn is again!
I went to pick Jordan up at Alyssa's house and she did not want to leave. She had a wonderful time. Here the two of them are flipping off a couch in the living room.
Jordan told me later after picking her up that she now wants a playhouse inside of her house next to our couch so she can jump from the playhouse to the couch. She thought this was the best! Yes, there is a Christmas tree in my picture! Our friends told me that it has been up for four years. They set it up and could never figure out how to take it apart so they have left it. I had a great laugh when I saw it.
Sunday, we attended a going away party for one of CHH's co-workers. Her family and her are moving to New York. Both Jordan and Katelyn had a great time playing outside with the other kids.
When we left the party, Katelyn said "That was fun." It cracked me up and at the same time I thought it was so great that she is able to express herself so much more now. She continues to changes so much every day.
