Fun times with Kiki and Pops!

This past weekend, we had a visit from Evie’s Kiki and Pops. I love seeing my daughter interact with my parents. They adore her and she just lights up when she gets to see them! My dad will sit on the floor and play with Evelyn, and she just loves it. She will show him her toys and climb on his legs and they have a ball! My mom played with her too, but Evie really loved it when Kiki snuggled with her and read book after book. Evie loves her books! A current favorite is Pat the Bunny. After watching our one of our fav basketball teams win – C-A-T-S! Cats! Cats! Cats! – we went out to dinner. Evie loves sitting in a highchair at the table and watching everyone. She had a great time playing peek-a-boo with us. It’s her new favorite game. She has recently learned to cover her own eyes. To be honest, sometimes she covers her forehead or her ears with her hands, but she understands the concept and she loves it! When my parents left the next day, we were sad to see them go, but it’s not as bad as it was before because now we have Facetime. I got an Ipad for Christmas so now we can call my mom and dad and talk/see them anytime! Evie is literally obsessed with it. And it makes it so much better because now they can see her more than once every few weeks. My dad even brings his Ipad to my grandma’s house and Evie gets to see her G.G. Mitchell! We have fun with it. Evelyn is growing and changing so much and I want to be able to share that with them.
