The kids and Toby were so excited that Mommy and Daddy were back!! We felt the same way! And how fun that we are home but Mom and Dad Roslansky will still be here for like 6 days!! Fun!!!
Well that is until this showed up on Sara's foot on Wednesday while still in Mexico. She went to the doctor on Friday upon returning and learned that her big toes were definitely infected so that it was good she took an antibiotic. Unfortunately she's allergic to Cipro, hence the rash on her legs. The Cipro also weakened her immune system so that the Coxasackie virus that Trevor had Sara now got. How lucky :) Luckily some Benadryl cleared it all up after a few days.
While Sara's parents were here we spent a lot of time outside. The weather is so beautiful and we are excited to be able to be outside and play! As you can see Papa Steve was Ashley's buddy!
When Nana and Papa Steve got to our house Trevor and Nana made a list of everything they wanted to do while they were here. Make cupcakes, soccer, paint, make a card for Great Aunt Alice...the list went on and on. Probably 20 thing and by golly they actually got everything on the list done!
Have we told you that we think Toby is Randle reincarnated? That could be its own post but here's one thing....he lays in the exact spot Randle did and can't get enough of the sun! Cute and strange all at the same time!
Papa Steve may have a little soft spot for Toby :)
One day we went to the library and no joke left with 19 books between the two kids! Trevor was anxious to get home and grab a spritzer and read with Nana!
On Saturday morning after bagels and brew at the clubhouse Trevor went with Grandma and Grandpa Hillins to the car show at their church. Trevor had to bring his own toy car and wasn't shy to tell anyone who would listen all about it!
Saturday evening we visited Chuck E Cheese's to celebrate the kids birthdays a little early so that Nana and Papa Steve could celebrate too!
Both kids had a lot of fun and ate a lot of pizza! Trevor cashed in his tickets for candy and a little toy for his sister. He has such a big heart!
When we got home it was present time!! Trevor got his own set of magna-tiles! He's been playing with them at the kids korner at the clubhouse for years and was super excited to have his own set now! His quote 'I sure like Imaginext toys a lot but I'm very very happy to have magna-tiles!'
He hasn't stopped playing with them since getting them!
What did Ashley get??
She sure liked opening gifts!! Christmas will be a blast!
Along with a feeding set and high chair! She couldn't be happier! She also got the matching cradle as an early birthday present from Mommy and Daddy. It's so fun watching her play house!
And then it was cupcake time! We went to a nearby specialty shop and the kids got to pick out cupcakes for everyone!
Make a wish!
Could she be any cuter??
Clearly after that it was bath time. It's so funny how much Ashley is like Trevor. Well she has been watching him for two years but we had to capture this for our memory banks of how now she wants to lay on her belly while the water drains from the tub. Trevor does the same thing!!!!
Ever since starting at Primrose Ashley continues with her brief meltdowns. She wasn't so sure what to do when Papa Steve joined her on the ground!! LOL!
Oh yes, here's the cradle that was mentioned before. Good night baby! (baby has yet to get a name!)
On Saturday night we went to our friend Bobby's birthday at Top Golf. Such a cool new venue! Will definitely be back there!
On Sunday we took a day trip up to Sedona. Ashley was so thrilled to learn that Daddy switched her car seat around to be forward facing! She read her book the whole way up practically!
We ate outside at the Cowboy Club. The food was pretty good but the view was amazing. Sara and kids had never been to Sedona before, the rest had been.
While Mommy and Nana did some shoe shopping Trevor worked on his photography skills!
Then we went on a hike around Bell Rock. It was the perfect distance for the Trevor to walk and Ashley to be in a stroller. There were parts that were a little difficult for Brian to maneuver but all in all it was so much fun!!
Most of the evenings while Sara's parents were here we played Five Crowns. Sara won once, Brian won once and Papa Steve one once. Maybe next time Nana will win :)
And on their last morning while Trevor was at school Nana, Mommy and Ashley went to a nearby coffee shop that Sara loves. It has a kiddy korner!!! Therefore Ashley loves it too!
Thank you Mom and Dad R for coming and staying so long to watch the kids and so that we could spend time together! We are already counting the days until we see you again! Seriously, we made a countdown chain the next day because Trevor was so upset.
But seriously, this is what Mommy listened to the entire 30 minute drive back from the airport. 'Nana :(' 'Papa' 'I miss them so much' and then full on breakdowns.
Broke Mommy's heart.
