A Visit from the Grandparents

This past weekend my parents came down to visit, and, needless to say, the kids loved having them here. Here is a picture of Caitlyn & Brayden relaxing in their bedroom while I vaccumed and got ready for our company. 

Brayden hanging out with Uncle Jordan

Caitlyn enjoying a special treat from Grandpa Larry & Grandma Susan--a marshamllow-cupcake sucker...(yes, she was definitely on a sugar high after this!) ;)

YUUUUMMYY!!

Caitlyn modeling her new sunglasses that she got from her Great Aunt Kathy.

Valentine's Cookies

This past week Caitlyn made Valentine's cookies for her uncles and grandparents.

Can you tell she's having a little too much fun!

She loves cinnamon red hots or "hot-hots" as she refers to them.

One busy girl!

I was busy making dinner one night last week, and I had left a pile of unfolded laundry on the couch. Kyle and I went in the living room & found our little girl "folding" my laundry...too sweet!

Folding it just like mom

Brayden quite pleased with one of his Valentine's Day presents.

Caitlyn  reading to her brother (excuse her post-nap "crazy" hair).

Opening their many Valentine's gifts!

A Few Brother/Sister pics

Last Sunday before church we couldn't resist getting a few pictures of the kids.

At least they seem to like each other at this point

Caitlyn showing off her red-sequin shoes & new "sparkley" purse

Enjoying the "photo session" a little too much! ;)

Now when we try to sit Brayden on the floor, he plants his feet and locks his knees so he stays in a standing position. I'm really worried that he may start crawling (if not walking) sooner than I want him to.

He eventually gives in & sits down...
