Aunt Barbara and Uncle Rich Visit
It's been a little while since we've seen Aunt Barbara and Uncle Rich, so it was really nice to be able to get some time to spend with them and have some nice weather to walk around town. Abby and Zoë were sleeping when they arrived, or so we thought. We had been over at the condo and visiting with U. Matt and Caitlin this morning, and Abby and Zoë knew that company was coming so I was surprised when Zoë was having a hard time getting herself to sleep. I guess I shouldn't have been since she slept until 8:00 this morning.
Just after A. Barbara and U. Rich arrived, Zoë yelled for me to come and fix her clips. Abby was still sleeping, but it had only been 10 minutes or so since I'd left the room thinking that Zoë was sleeping. I settled her and went back downstairs, only to hear some noise on the floor soon after this. Chris went up to investigate and ended up coming down with both of the girls. Both of the girls were being shy, then Abby noticed a gift on the table that I hadn't put away. A. Barbara had given it to me to look at and make sure it was suitable for the girls, and I had set it there. With gifts in hand, pretty soon the girls were warming up. Shortly after this, Matt and Caitlin had to go and Abby ran in to the kitchen with a sad face, thinking that A. Barbara and U. Rich were leaving.
Before getting ready to head out for a walk, Abby and Zoë each received another gift... neat boxes with learning puzzle sets inside. Of course then we had to spend some time checking these out and putting everything together. We managed to get these things put away and headed out for a walk to decide where we were going to eat for dinner. With all of the excitement, Abby and Zoë hadn't wanted to sit down and have snack, so every place we passed they were both asking, "Is this a restaurant, is this where we're eating?" We settled on Radicci, which is somewhere none of us had eaten before, and settled in. With some bread and appetizer to munch on, the girls were really well behaved and enjoyed the atmoshphere of the restaurant, especially the oil lit candles on the table.
Thanks Aunt Barbara and Uncle Rich for gifts, good food, and good company!
Abby @ 3 years, 6 months, 23 days
