Grammy to the Rescue!

I really wanted my mom to come visit me, so a few weeks ago I rubbed peanuts all over my face and put myself into anaphylaxis so she would have no choice but come to MI and take care of me.  Or something like that.....

What really brought her to MI was the twirls turning two.  She came for a week to help celebrate their bdays with us.  And also to rescue me.  She told me that she thinks my body has been in PTSD for the past few years.  Moving, buying a house, getting prego with twins, all the appointments, c-section, newborn twins, the hive debacle, Jake moving to Mi-Chicago, etc....  In fact, I just found out that whenever I call her cell, her ringtone for me is "Under Pressure" by Queen.  My fave band.  And my life's mantra.

So needless to say, we were all really excited to see Grammy!!!  I scheduled like 3 doctor appointments while she was here (always good to have extra hands).

We played outside:

We played inside:

We ate yummy treats (some of us were spoon fed by Grammy cause we were "too tired" to hold the spoon... not going to tell you who that was *cough Jake cough*)

We took naps (while I organized my office....FINALLY!):

We had parties.  We had the twirls' Two-Two party (more coming soon).   And Grammy threw lots of tea parties:

We played silly games and played with Grammy's iPhone's Slow-Mo feature:
  

We went to Ballet:

We Grammy cleaned my minivan (while Scarlett jumped in puddles).  It's never looked better:


We had a blast with Grammy here!!!  I was glad I got to spend some time with my mom.  I'm thankful that I got to decompress a little bit.  Come back soon (or I will have to use the peanuts!)
