First houseguests

Since the move, we've already had several houseguests. Our first was Grammi. She helped us with packing, the move and with Piper. One night at dinner Piper insisted that Grammi put on her sunglasses (or as she calls them "eyes") before feeding her applesauce. In fact, it was a requirement for being present during Piper's entire dinnertime meal.


Cousin Wendell (Piper called him "Wenell") and Kelly (and "Kel-yee") came to see us the following weekend. Wendell finished up the electrical work for us and he and Kelly both helped us with moving the last of our stuff from the rental house. Piper had a great time with both of them, and loved the extra folks around to entertain. She and Kelly spent the afternoon together one day, so Mommy could finish cleaning out the old house and Daddy and Wendell could unload the last of the U-Haul.

We had some surprise visitors over this past weekend. Uncle Tom (Piper is still working on saying this, right now she thinks we are saying tongue and she sticks hers out and points at it), Aunt Maria ("An Ria"), Osten ("Oshen") and Marci ("Marse") came to stay with us Saturday night. They were at a wedding in Charlotte and they passed by us on their way back home. We were so glad to have them come visit. All three kids had fun in the tub together Saturday night.
Piper and Osten enjoyed playing together and Marci loved watching them both.
