I flew to Peoria, IL last Wednesday to see Drew, Kayley and sweet
baby Ryan. I must say I was very excited to do this! Leaving 85 degree
weather for the 20's and 30's would normally be tough for old granny
but not when she gets to play with these three kids. We had a grand
time but things were dampened a bit when Drew came down with a bad case
of the flu on Friday night. When I left on Monday he was home from
school (his first day ever of missing kindergarten!) He is back at
school now and I am so thankful. Now praying that the other two kids
and Megan and Andy do not get it!
Ryan is such a fun
little guy. He smiles ALL the time and hardly ever fusses. What more
can one ask from a 9 month old?!?! He was a little shy when I picked
him up at daycare the day of my arrival but we quickly became good
friends and I fell in love. Drew and Kayley are getting so big and
starting to have their own opinions and thoughts and that is always
fun....or perhaps not? It is!
While I was in IL, Mark
was hosting Andy and his brothers who came to AZ to attend spring
training BB games. I think the boys (Mark included) all enjoyed the
games, weather, etc.! I am sure that will be a standing spring ritual!
Good for them. It is definitely worth coming here to see.
Our
next big adventure will be the arrival of Megan and the family for
spring break next Friday. Mark and I are so excited for this visit. We
have some things lined up that we think the kids will like and we plan
to give Megan and Andy several "date" nights. The weather here is absolutely fabulous right and who from the midwest
would not enjoy that after this past winter?
Some videos and pics of my time in Peoria.
I am sick....
Rock and roll
My cute grandson!

I like to smile!
Ryan loves bath time
Kayley used her easy bake oven to make pizza.....she had something else for dinner. :-)
Kayley is pulling Ryan in his walker and Drew gives his
opinion on that and mildly scolds grandma in the process! LOL
In this video I am making faces and head movements and Ryan mimics me perfectly!
