Friday after work we took Little Miss J to the pool, which was a special treat since usually Friday nights are spent at home. The only thing that could get her out of the pool was the promise of some crab for dinner and thus, we became those people at the Chinese buffet that I typically judge - you know the ones who only go for the crab legs and have shells piled obscenely high in the middle of their table? Yeah, that was us. Little Miss J can shovel the crabmeat in her little mouth faster than Gus can crack the shells.
Saturday after her regularly scheduled gymnastics class, Little Miss J went to Kaden's 4th birthday party, where there was a fire truck for the little ones to climb on. Little Miss J was partial to sitting in the driver's seat and was not too interested in letting anyone else drive. At one point, she even buckled herself in I'm guessing because she thought it would be harder to oust her if she was strapped to the driver's seat.
Saturday evening, Gus's parents arrived and we got them as settled into their house as one can get with no furniture. Little Miss J has quickly become very attached to the fact that Halmoni and Harabogee are to stay. On Sunday, she went grocery shopping with them. Then while Gus took them to Costco, Little Miss J and I went to visit Auntie Rachael and Uncle Randy to do a little swimming. After nearly falling asleep in her Chex mix, it was time for us to head home where she sacked out on the couch for an hour and a half only to wake up and demand to see Halmoni and Harabogee.
Since they live less than three miles away, we called them up and they were happy to have us come over. Gus helped them with some bills and Little Miss J danced, jumped, and ran around the empty house. I think we are all looking forward to having family so close by!
