Mama Monster











My mom flew in today! We picked her up at the airport this morning and she is here for a week! She is doing a great job keeping up with us! It has been a busy day. We went to Quinton's for lunch and to lids to buy the new hats the kids are wearing! She brought Derek a new wallet and was nice enough to put some money in it! So of course he wanted to buy something! The nice thing is he bought Noelle a hat at Lids too! From there we went to the big easter egg hunt on Mass St. The kids found a ton of eggs, its not hard because they dump them by colors in the middle of a huge park! They were happy with the eggs and the candy and Derek jumped in a big air filled cage! Noelle even went down a big blow up slide. Jeff was still smiling in this picture because it was before he waited in line for an hour to get a spiderman handmade balloon. Noelle got a princess wand and it popped before we even gt back to the car!!! We are making chicken casserole now for dinner and Mom has offered to babysit while Jeff and I go out tonight! They will all probably crash by 8. It has been a long day! Just like when my parents came to visit when I was in college, I don't feel guilty leaving to go out after they fall asleep!! All of you friends out there that have gandparents local, count your blessings! Free babysitter, you gotta take advantage of that!!

What about those of us folks who are moving to be nearer our brothers and their children while leaving behind the grandparents-to-be?

Is that just ridiculous?
