Grandma Sue’s April 2010 Visit
On April 17th, Grandma Sue arrived at the Grand Rapids airport, met by Ian and I at the gate. It was a lovely visit that I myself still feel a little bad about, because I had to pay attention to a very important deadline, and missed out on much of Grandma Sue’s stay. In the same way that I’ve been missing out on bits and pieces of everything, really. Thus I don’t have as many pics of Grandma Sue with the kids as I would have liked, but these things happen. As you can tell, I only recently surfaced from all that work, so that lasted far beyond the deadline during her stay. Anyway, here’s a glimpse into some of the fun while she was hanging out in Rockford.
Can Nina lift her head during belly time? Well, we’ve already seen that she does alright, right? See this image larger.
And sometimes she does spectacular. (Look at this one bigger, if you can…) See this image larger.
It helps to have Coach Ian on hand. See this image larger.
She’s like “take… the flippin’… pic…ture….*gasp gasp*” See this image larger.
Somewhere along the way, Nina got attached to this little doll… it isn’t quite as much of a necessity as a zooey/pacifier but she’s got a smile for that dolly just about every time. See this image larger.
She’s still doing great on weight-gain/eating. If she looks a little pudgy here, we couldn’t be happier. See this image larger.
The sleeping beauties. Are these not the most innocent of cherubs? The answer to that is “While they’re sleeping, absolutely.” 😉 This one’s worth a closer look as well… See this image larger.
Grandma Sue talks to Uncle Chris via Xbox 360; what you see before you is how my sibling and I communicate the most these days, via game. Which is awesome! See this image larger.
Now is a great time to mention that Grandma Sue put in some serious hours with Ian and Nina. She worked very hard to give us time to do the things that have been piling up. Ian looks pretty happy about it too, doesn’t he? 🙂 See this image larger.

Hi ladies! Thanks again for visiting Grandma Sue, and lending a hand… it was a very nice visit! See this image larger.
EDIT – I’m putting together a video or two for the next couple of entries, so there might be a day or two of delay before the next entry.
