A Nice, Long Visit From Nana & Pop Pop

On Saturday, Peter was participating in a reenactment in Monmouth, NJ from early morning to late night (ie, ELF PANTS).  I was going to be home with Abby all by my lonesome but Nana and Pop Pop came to the rescue! 

Nana came down around 10am and Pop Pop came down around 3pm when he was done at work.  We had a really nice day and Nana helped out around the house (THANK YOU).  We went out for lunch and stopped by the King of Prussia mall to get Peter his first Father's Day card as well as a gift - a Rock Bottom growler filled with a new summer seasonal ale (Saison D'Ete, which was a belgian farmhouse ale).  Abby is already getting her daddy beer as gifts.  I had also wanted to get a new tree to plant to have it be Abby's tree, but we didn't see anything good at Home Depot, plus I think we'll wait until the fall when it'd be better to plant anyway (we're thinking Dogwood). 

Nana got to change Abby's diaper for the first time (wheeee, what fun!) and also fed her a bottle and burped her.  She got to push her around the mall in the stroller too.  In the evening when Pop Pop got to our house, he got to hold her for a long time and we took Sophie for a hot walk around the block.  We grabbed some Jimmy Johns for dinner and most of the evening consisted of Nana and Pop Pop staring at Abby for long periods of time.  Carter was also present and he was VERY intrigued with Abby.  His barks were a bit shrill though and sometimes startled Abby.  Hopefully he'll get used to her.  We'll be watching Carter for 2 weeks when they are away in Hawaii - it should be interesting!  I think it'll be fine though (fingers crossed).  2 dogs, a sometimes barfing cat, and a baby!

It was a nice visit by the grandparents and made my day a whole lot easier!
