This was a weekend full of visitors! Yesterday, Leah visited with her Gran in the morning, and then later in the afternoon, she had some very special guests: Great-Grandma Marilyn, Great-Great-Aunt Joan, and cousins Allison and Charlie, who live alllll the way on the other side of the country! It was very exciting and Leah is glad she got to see everybody! Today, my cousins Kim and Natalie came to visit BabyBug earlier in the day, and then our friends Jessica and Toni came a little later. Then in the evening Aunti Staci and Grandma Barbie came for a visit – and they brought frozen yogurt for Mandy, so I’m pretty sure they’re Mandy’s new best friends. The light in the PICU room is awesome for pictures (except when it’s so awesome that it washes out people’s faces) so hopefully I’ll be posting more pictures now! Enjoy!

BabyBug with Mandy and her mama in a three-generation photo.

My absolute favorite photo of the day.

How did we wind up with such a ridiculously cute little Bug? Her Mommy is pretty cute too.

Sometimes we make scrunchy faces in our pretty pink dress. Sometimes we are sweet and precious (not that scrunchy-face isn’t also precious…).

And sometimes we just stick out our tongues.

Great-Grandma Marilyn snuggling with Leah for the first time

If Great-Grandma wants to steal Bug’s feet she’s gonna have to fight Mama for them! Mama called dibs on toes!

GG Aunt Joan says she’s not a picture-taker but I think she did just fine!

A couple of great-grands, both ma and auntie.

Cousin Allison with a sleeping tiny tot!

Cousin Charlie, who has never seen “Charlie the Unicorn”!

“Um, I don’t know about this, Mommy!”

Cousins Kim and Natalie, who held me when I was this small!
