Another Grandkid Update!

Julie's family stopped by our home today for a very short visit. They came to pick up a piece of furniture and were trying out their new car-top cargo carrier.

Melody did not want to play with her grandparents today. She wanted her Ipad ... and when she wasn't allowed to have it, she decided to drive her parents' car. She also did not want to share her fruit snacks and got very, very angry that Mimi ate one anyway.

Oh, dear.

Annalee, on the other hand, was very amiable today. She had her first taste of a dill pickle as she sat on the deck table. She let me hold her for quite a while. Then she let me give her a ride in the red wagon. When Melody saw her little sister get a wagon ride, she decided it was OK to be around Mimi for a wagon ride, too.

That red spot on Annie's forehead? She got excited to see her mom and fell over from a sitting position, bonking foreheads with her mom. The tears didn't last long.

Jeff and Julie were a little worn out from the hour-and-a-half of crying on the drive up. They endured more crying on the drive home. All safe and sound, though.

Parents are warriors.
