Getting to be a "Grampa's girl?"


"you taking my picture Mama?"

What you can't see, is Julia is actually walking with Grampa holding his hand! Trust me a BIG deal!

Sliding with Grampa's help



Spending a lazy Saturday morning with Daddy :)




Our visit is going well! Julia is loving having her grandparents here. Being "Grammie's girl" comes pretty easy to her (as probably Nai-Nai can also attest!) but getting closer to Grampa that takes building up to. She's doing better this time than ever before, of course it might help that Grampa was ready and willing to take her outside before anyone else, and helping her ride her new bike (pics of that to come later) didn't hurt either. But even after all of that, I asked her last night "Doesn't Grampa deserve a hug?" her answer "Yes".. Me--"are you going to give him one?" ... Julia.."NO". Little twerp! But he did tell me this morning she was hanging on his knees, so I'm sure the hugs will come by the end of their two week visit!

Grammie on the other hand is getting lots of hugs and loving it.

One other funny story before I forget. We got back from shopping the other day and made sandwiches for lunch. Julia had asked for peanut butter and Fluff.. so that's what I made her. We're sitting at the table eating and she comes out with.."Thank you for my sandwich Mama, it's very good" pause..."you're a GREAT cooker Mama!" To which OF COURSE my Mom and I both cracked up laughing (for those that don't know, I barely cook at all, I can bake, but cooking, that's all Daddy!) Julia looked at us and said "I made a funny?" Mom and I both still laughing, "yes honey, you made a BIG funny" But oh wasn't she sweet??!! :)

Julia is growing so fast! She is still oh so precious!

As far as the comment, although funny, those are the kinds of comments that melt my heart!
