To be completely honest, the weeks leading up to Ahma/Ahpa and Grandma Pat's visit were pretty rough. Nevi had an ear infection and sinus thing. COda developed a respiratory infection that progressed so much that we ended up at the doc office one night with him on a Nebulizer . It was rough going for a few weeks. Nev and Coda were just getting better when our visitors arrived. Coda was still fussy though Ahma and Ahpa's visit but finally seemed to return to 'normal' when Grandma Pat was here. Even though I know Coda so well, it is still very hard for me to tell what's wrong sometimes when he's fussy. Teething is usually the culprit but he also seems to catch most respiratory colds and bugs that go around so discomfort in the health department seems common. I think he's growing super fast, too, and wonder sometimes if he isn't just uncomfortbale in the midst of growth spurts. Anyhoo, our sweet Coda returned during Pat's visit and they seemed to really make a connection. COda loves to dance and drum and he even started singing for the first time when Grandma Pat was here. We all had a fabulous time during her visit. We went to the Butterfly Pavillion, church, Pearl Street, went out to breakfast at our local Walnut Cafe, did a lot of yummy cooking and baking and crafts and games AND celebrated Nev's actual 4th birthday together. Grandma Pat got her a very cool new bike, as she was outgrowing her old one. It has purple handlebars and purple steamers and we LOVE riding, almost daily now, or until our next snow storm, that is. Grandma also got her some new summer attire, including a new swim suit! We'd been on such a 'high' with all the wonderful company, I gotta say, I was pretty blue to see everyone go....
