At home and about

July 17 - 19, 2009

My grandparents usually take the three oldest kids home with them after church on Sundays. It is a nice break for us and we get to spend some time with Emma. Usually we do our grocery shopping and sometimes we go out for lunch. Here we are at our favorite Mexican restaurant. Emma was enjoying the tortilla chips.

Mmmmmm....food :)

Mark looking at the menu. I don't know why we bother opening them, we get the same things every time!
Emma was nice enough to let me have a bite of this one.


Sunday evenings Papa brings the kids home. This particular Sunday he got a little extra "playtime" with them while Mark had to go get his extra set of keys to his truck after Patrick accidentally locked the truck with his keys in it. Oops.

Emma loves to swing.

Look at Gracie go!

She's getting way to big! Patrick the monkey boy.

Benny the sloth.

I found them all "sleeping" one day. And yes, Patrick is "helping" Emma sleep by holding her head on the pillow.
They also played a game where they made a bed with the stools and put the sick person on it. I guess it was Patrick's turn to be "sick". Looks like Emma is trying to make him all better.
