Sleep Overs Are The Best

Recently we have had the joy of Anna spending the night with us.  If you talk with our friends they would tell you how much we look forward to our special time with her.  She gets to stay up later than normal, eat treats when ever she wants to, cry and we come running and look at us, smile and watch us melt to the floor.  You get to see all the various sides of the grand kids when you are around them for an extended period of time that you miss when you just have them for a few hours.  Anna's best time of day is in the morning.  She is rested and feed and ready to play.   My favorite is when she wakes up and you are changing her diaper, she reaches far above her head and reaches and stretches.   So cute!

Anna's basket of toys are kept under the coffee table.  She has already learned where they are kept and makes a bee line from the front door straight to her toys.  She decided it would be easier to just get in the basket with her toys.

She is soooo close to letting go and taking off walking.  If won't be long now mom and dad!

I just love it when she crawls up in my lap.

She found the out doors on this visit.  Hand prints and a little slobber who cares!

We bought this little play area when Pierce was about the same age and had a sleep over.

I just love the look on Pierce's face. 

This is Pierce today at 5 years of age.  Still as cute and sweet as ever!

We sooo miss putting our arms around him. 

Our kids will never know, until later, how much this special time with our grand kids means to us.

Thank you!
