Jake's parents came last week to help us with the babies. The timing was great for us because I was sick the first half of their trip and Jake was sick the last half. Probably not the most fun - but we really appreciated having the extra help while we weren't feeling well.
Scarlett went on lots of outside adventures with Grandma and Grandpa. I think most of them ended at the bird bath - she loves that thing!
Right before my in-laws arrived I mentioned to Laura how I would probably need a larger nursing cover. I love my old one that Jamie made me but I bought a new twin nursing pillow (one upstairs, one downstairs) and the cover wouldn't fit around it. I was telling Laura how I have a design in my head and she just whipped it out with her sewing machine - full 360deg coverage! I have such talented friends. Thanks Jamie and Laura!!! (and I'm sure my father-in-law thanks you too for the coverage you provided!)
We ate such delicious food! And my kitchen was spotless.
During their bath at night I use my heating pad to warm up their clothes. Then right after we get them dressed I turn it off and lay it on top of them. They fall fast asleep!
Mom G mowed our lawn while Dad G pruned all our trees and shrubs! Thank you!!!!!
Scarlett wanted to be swaddled and use a binky one night.
Grandma came to MI with new books for Scarlett - each individually wrapped. Scarlett loved opening them "a present!" and they would sit and read them together. So sweet!
We loved having you here!!! Thanks so much for all your help and much needed R&R. :-)

Mom and dad G are AWESOME! I'm so glad they came out and spoiled y'all. :-)
So glad they were there to take care of you guys for a while. With that many kids, it's got to be nice to have all the extra hands you can get!
Fun visit. I love the nursing cover. I am so jealous and want a full body sized heating pad for me!!! ;)
