a visit and a surprise

Aunt L came to visit on 8-31 and stayed until 9-4. It was great! The kids loved having her here. They sang songs, rode bikes, danced around, made cookies, played duplos and had numerous tea parties. Thank you Aunt L for all the babysitting we tricked you into :) After we took Aunt L to the airport we drove to Gilmer for the rest of the long weekend. It was kind of a quick trip but the kids had fun riding around in the back of Papa's truck helping T scope out a good hunting spot.

Can you believe this cute little baby could be fussy? Well, she was for most of the time Aunt L was here. We couldn't really figure out what was going on until Sunday (9/5) when we discovered 2 teeth at church. She got both her bottom teeth at the same time. Shortly after the discovery her nose started running and she started feeling a little warm. It would have been nice if she had those symptoms before we discovered the teeth. We would have been happy to give her some Tylenol to help with the discomfort and it probably would have let us all get some sleep. Maybe she will learn from her mistakes and show some more signs before her next teeth come in...probably not though :)


This is one of my favorite pictures. I love seeing the kids' relationships with each other. (I stole all these pictures from L's blog! Thanks L for taking such great pictures!!)
