Should be cleaning ~

My mother is flying into town tomorrow & we are so excited! I keep reminding Aiden that Grannie Annie is coming to stay and he is very happy :o) We are going to pick her up from the airport and go straight to the zoo in hopes that we avoid most of the College World Series crowd. We also need to be mindful of the weather because our forecast has highs at 89-91 for the next 7 days. I better not forget sunscreen as that would be a total disaster. YIKES, talk about warm and painful.

We are planning a whole bunch of stuff - as well as lounging around and playing indoors. I think both boys will have a ton of fun while she is here!

I took Graham in for his 9 month check up on Monday. He was 24 pounds and 28 inches long! That means since his birth he has grown 6 inches in length and gained 15 1/2 pounds. He is so much fun to squeeze - chubby babies give the best hugs. Might I just add that Aiden didn't even weigh that much at 1 year! He was my little skinny mini :o) Dr Bott said he looked great from a developmental stand point and that we should expect his speech to really start....Just yesterday he began saying Dada - Now we need to work on Mama!

My house does need a little work - wiping down counters, mopping and vacuuming, shoveling toys into toy boxes. And of course, LAUNDRY..... My arch-enemy. But instead of getting this place ready for our guest, I am sitting on my ass enjoying the silence of both boys napping at the same time. It's just cruel having to give that up to clean.....
