Sam's parents came for a visit this past weekend. They had been in Africa the past two months so this was their first chance to visit us in Grand Forks. We had nice weather while they were here and were able to spend a lot of time outside.
Notice how Squirrel is helping to push Grandpa Tom on the swing
This is a game Tom used to play with Sam when he was Allie's age. It's called "pawny" (no one knows why) and is a great test of arm strength and stability.
Making bead necklaces with Grandma Janet and Grandpa Tom
We've had trouble getting Allie to go to bed like a big girl recently, so we decided a sticker chart was the way to go. It worked with potty training! When she fills up a line on the chart with stickers earned from going down for nap and bedtime like a big girl and waking up like a big girl, we get to go for special ice cream. Her choice this first time was cotton candy ice cream with sprinkles.
Fish art with Grandma Janet
Tinkerbell, I mean Allie, got to open a few early birthday presents. A new Dr. Seuss book...
and two new dresses that Grandpa Tom and Grandma Janet brought back from Africa.
We have the prettiest front walk on the block, complete with five princesses, seven dwarfs and even some outlines of Allie!
