We spent an extra night at my parents' house after Easter to enjoy more family time. Russ made a visit to the local hospital radiology department while I stayed with Millie Janalee to make sure she was fed, bathed, and took a nap. When she woke up, it was time to pack up and drive over to Russ's parents' home for an all day visit.
It's always fun visiting Russ's parents for many reasons. One of those is we never know who we will get to see. I think they have a revolving door for family and friends! Ha! Aunt Jenny came over to play for a while early in the day. Millie Janalee was in such a good mood, and I was so glad. The last couple of times Aunt Jenny had seen her, she wasn't in the happiest mood. Which is rare. So, we played and played on Granmomma's bed. Granmomma hasn't been feeling well, so it was good to see her in such good spirits during our visit.
I didn't get a single picture of our next visitor. Russ's Aunt Julie came and spent most of the day with us. Millie Janalee had so much fun playing with her Granmomma and Granmomma's sister. Russ and I left them in the bedroom to play and have some quality time. Aunt Julie would get Millie Janalee just about to sleep when Millie Janalee would stiffen up and realize she might miss out on something. Ha! Such a social butterfly!
Aunt Julie had some errands to run, so she said her goodbyes after Millie Janalee took a short nap. The rest of our afternoon welcomed more visitors! Our nephew, Will, and his fiance, Elle, always stop by when we are at Granmomma and Pop's house. They love Millie Janalee! Millie Janalee wasn't well-rested, so we were working pretty hard to entertain her. I spotted bubbles sitting on the stairway and suggested we go outside to blow them.
Once she got bored with our puny little bubbles, Will had a great idea. He got busy making his own bubbles and wand from a cookie sheet and wire hanger. Next thing we know, he's blowing gigantic bubbles! Elle's mom and little sister came by just at the right time. Mackenzie loved making bubbles too!
When Pop got home, we left him with Granmomma and took a stroll around the block a few times. Millie Janalee loved strolling in her new umbrella stroller. I bought this a while back at Walmart (my least favorite store around). When I got ready to put it together, I noticed it only had one wheel! Augh! So...we couldn't use it until I mustered up the energy to return it and get another one. I finally did...just in time!
We finished up our visit with Mexican take-out and more visiting with Pop, Granmomma, Elle, and Aunt Jenny. Seth and his girlfriend stopped by too. The Easter afterglow was filled with fun and quite relaxing.
Now, we're back to reality. And thankful for the beautiful weather that has finally come our way!
