My mom came up to visit us this past weekend! She originally wanted to come see us just after my birthday, but then a massive snowstorm squashed that plan. Kaya was more excited than ever for “gwam-ma” to arrive!For every precious pose, there are at least 3 more goofy ones behind the scenes.
My mom is always up for baking something, so I thought it’d be fun to make sugar cookies for Kaya could decorate with her! I originally wanted to go crazy with shamrocks and green frosting for St. Patrick’s Day… but then I realized that I don’t have a shamrock cookie cutter! And this is coming from the girl who has well over 100 different cookie cutter shapes to choose from… go figure!  We made springtime cookies instead. 🙂 As usual, we also made a pretty big mess……and Michael made a “doggy doo” cookie. I have no idea why, but he insisted I take a picture, so here it is.My mom also brought me some belated birthday presents- earrings and new converses! YAY!  My littlest was in such a good mood all weekend long. This is her insanely-happy smiley face before church on Sunday! As usual, there isn’t much napping that goes on when we have visitors (and there’s never any napping on Sundays with afternoon church now), so by Sunday night, everyone was exhausted. My little bug just couldn’t stay awake!My mom left yesterday morning, and Kaya has already been asking for her to come back. Soon, we hope! 🙂
