We miss Grandma!

My mom came and spent almost 2 months with us this summer. We don't get to see my parents very often since they live so far away, so it was so great to be able to spend so much time together. She came a couple weeks before we had Kepler and so Jayna got all her attention. She instantly became Grandma's little buddy!

She let Jayna "help" her do her hair in curlers and Jayna loved it!


Kepler loved snuggling with her

She bumped down the stairs with Jayna and said "woah, woah, woah"

She bought Jayna a sweet baby pool for the backyard

I can't even count how many books they read together!

She was so fun to hang out with and an awesome shopping partner!


My mom was such a huge help to us, we really appreciate her coming and spending the summer with us. We all miss her tons! I think Jayna finally understands that Grandma is gone. The first couple days after she left she wandered around the house looking for her and calling "Grandma!", and at bedtime she would say "Grandma hug, Grandma kiss". Then she figured that she must be at work like Daddy, so she would ask "where Grandma go?" and then she would answer "work". The other day she finally said "Grandma bye-bye", so sad! But she's still not sure if the room beside hers is Grandma's or Kepler's, poor girl. We miss you and we can't wait to see you again!
