Gigi and Grandpa's Visit

Gigi and Grandpa visited this past week! That means only one thing...lots of spoiling occurred!!! The kids enjoyed the extra hugs and snuggles, and of course the extra attention. 

The beautiful weather allowed us to get out in the sun. Joshua overcame his fear of going down the slide alone, and Makayla actually swung on the swing (okay, so it was on Gigi's lap, and it didn't last long, but it was still a tiny success!).


On Friday, Joshua stole the show... 

Great-Grandma Rahe sent Joshua some Easter money, and told him to use it for donuts. He was, of course, very excited! He bought us a dozen mini donuts, and also bought himself a special Easter donut. He even bought our dog, Ally, three mini doggy donuts (what a big spender!). Thanks, Grandma and Grandpa Rahe, for treating us to a sugar high ; )




To top off the day, we made a trip to the mall. Joshua adopted a cute little puppy from Build-A-Bear. He clothed him in a firefighter suit, and named him Sparky. It was quite the (fun) process, and he loved every step of it.

Giving Sparky some stuffing
Kissing the heart that went in Sparky
Giving Sparky a bath before he gets dressed
He wanted to carry his new friend the entire time

And to top off the day, Grandpa took him for a spin on the merry-go-round...
