Can you deal with phonetic titles for the next year or so? I just find it so cute to transcribe the words. Although they are getting more and more understandable- other people can even understand them now!
Anyway, the point of this post is that Dave parents came to visit for a week- Bill was at a conference in Denver while Pat helped out with the girls. And the girls had a great time. You might recall that Adi has historically been afraid of strangers and its been the worst when we were around a big group, which is basically how most of our visits with Dave's family have been. But something switched in her and she went straight to them, giving hugs and kisses the first night and never looking back. Mae also had a great time, although for the past few weeks she's been clingy, constantly begging to get 'up' and trying to stand on my feet. One morning I was doing email while the girls played in the nursery with Grandma; Mae came out to see what I was doing and normally she would come over and beg to get up and look at pictures of babies on blogs ('picky, baby') but she pretty much looked at me and then went racing back to Grandma.
Neither Adi nor Mae seemed confused to have other people called Grandma and Grandpa (we use the same words for my parents), although that's not surprising considering they call all men 'Dada' and women 'Mama.'
Here's Pat dusting off her read-two-books-at-the-same-time skills:
And Bill found out that the grapefruit doesn't go as far when you share:
