G & G Are Here!

On Thursday, March 29th, Grandma Susie and Grandpa Chick came to visit. Jovie had a ton of fun playing, laughing, dancing, and being crazy. She also showed off her talking skills now with tons of "Da-da's", a few "hi's" and "Yeah's" with a backwards "Ma-ma" pronounced "Aaam-a" every now and then.

They came bearing Easter and Baby Dedication presents.

But, better than that, they came bearing Grandma and Grandpa kisses!

Even though we did a lot of cooking and chopping for the upcoming baby dedication, we took some time out to play and do some of our favorite things: swinging and taking walks.

Jovie still loves to go out and about, just about anywhere.

Jovie rubs her head when she's tired - it's her biggest tell

And even though the weather was a little chilly, the flowers were lovely, so we found some time for pretty pictures around the neighborhood.

The look that Jovie gives Grandpa is a favorite, too!

On Saturday we went to Bellehaven Park and walked to the Dyke Marsh.

We stopped for a diaper break before we even got started

Shenanigans around the house :)

She knocks down the stacking cups tower and flinches

Jovie also showed how slap-happy and giggly she gets when she's tired

Lots of quality time with Grandma and Grandpa!
