Great Gramma Ruthie

Poor Great Gramma had a stroke on Thursday, June 13th. She was in the hospital until Wednesday, June 19th. After that she came home with Gramma Deb & Grampa Lou so she could have someone with her at all times since Gramma Deb is not working. Great Gramma has been talking with this sweet southern belle voice. Its interesting to watch you both with her because you just understanding these new aand sometimes scary realities of life. There has been a lot of talk about what a stroke is, why it happens and who can it happen to. Our conversations are like a dance sometimes... a stroke happens when someones blood is too thick. It can happen to people who have thick blood. Thick blood is kind of like syrup...it can get clogged up if you pour it too fast This was the best explaination I could come up with and it kinda summarizes what the internet says. Great Gramma might live with Gramma Deb and Grampa Lou for a while or maybe even forever. Gramma Deb misses her mommy Gramma Joy alot. So taking care of Great Gramma makes her feel good inside. xoxox

Week 23

Twister good fun!

 

We have had a lazy week thus far! We spent Monday relaxing and playing games... like twister.

We also managed to fit in Princess Yahtzee Jr which was really a ton of laughs in a box -- mostly because we couldn't figure it out at first. 

  

Wednesday was the first day you went in the pool, even though your pool time was brief, you still had shivering good fun.

We had a quite a week! Kailee kept finding mini teeny tiny strawberries in the yard which made her feel like a giant! We had all kinds of bubbleicious fun and the we went to the library with Daddy...he enjoyed the puzzles as we "browsed" the books. I still cannot believe you both went in that freezing cold water - crazy girls!!

1st Pool Day

Even with the water being only 68 degrees you hoolies went swimming!! You managed to stick it out for 45 minutes before your purple shivering selves decided that was enough!

Kailee's Plant finally Bloomed!

After 2 years of being planted Kailee's plant finally flowered! It looks beautiful!

R & R

We managed an afternoon of Rest and Relaxation which lead to a nap and an entire book being read. Love lazy Mondays!

Saturday night we had a pizza party at Gramma Deb & Grampa Lou's! Abby and Jordy were there too! All the kids played so nicely and enjoyed their pizza.

After our pizza party Gramma Deb had icecream popsicles and those were enjoyed to the max!

Then mommy drove home with Auntie Tab & her littles - we entertained ourselves with great conversation and silly faces!
