We spend an awful lot of time with our families-especially now that the kids are in the works. This post is a thank you to all of you. You watch our kids, bathe our kids, play with our kids and love our kids with a love that can only come from a grandparent! And we appreciate it! This is Corey's mom-MeMe. She is an awesome grandma. She is retired and thus willing to watch our kids almost any day of the week that she has free. She is a great teacher. She taught Libby how to clap back in the day and is now working on her alphabet. So far she has taught Joe how to giggle-he giggled at her first!This is Corey's dad-Pappy. He is the silly one. He plays hard-to the point of hurting himself. This picture is of him and Libby in their "hats". Pappy loves to play outside with Libby-in the hammock, on the swing or just "ringing the birdie" (which is a wind-chime). He loves the baby too - holding him is a nice rest after playing so hard. This is my mom-Gramma. She has 3 grandchildren under 25 months, but it doesn't slow her down any-(okay so it slows her down some!) She is a fun playmate and resident chef to Libby. Whenever she walks in the door Libby is hungry. And Gramma is always sure to have food that Libby likes around-pudding, ice cream, cookies (some healthy things too). She is also my Joe-reliever. She will rock, hold, walk whatever it takes to calm him down. I love this picture of her with her little grandkids (she has a whole set of older grandkids too). They are quite a handful. This is my dad-Pawpaw. He gets a real kick out of watching Libby play and Joe grow. He is the only grandparent that received his name from Libby - to all the other grandkids he is "Grandpa". Pawpaw takes Libby out on the tractor sometimes and he plays games with her. He's a great cheerleader when Libby decides to walk around and he's anxiously awaiting playing ball with Joe (the first grandson in 16 years).
These are our parents-they did a good job with us, and I am enjoying watching them love and SPOIL their grandkids.
