gma spoils us

Mom Jacobs came for a visit this past weekend, arriving on Thursday evening (good thing Grey's Anatomy was a rerun, huh?) and returning to Phoenix on Monday evening. She apparently brought the Phoenix sunshine and warmth with her, since the whole weekend was so pleasant. Our house, which had been rather frigid since our return from SD, actually warmed up a bit!

On Friday morning, Gma helped me and Gracelyn babysit the twins, Max and Molly. (For those of you who don't already know, every Wednesday and Friday morning, Heather's nearly-eight-month-old twins come over for a few hours to play with us while Heather teaches at SJSU. It can be challenging taking care of three babies at once, so the extra help was definitely appreciated!) After Judd came home from work that night, Gma treated us to dinner at P.F Chang's. On Saturday, Gma and Gracelyn spent the evening together, reading books and cuddling, while Judd and I went out for sushi and drinks. Then, on Sunday, the four of us headed up to check out the Oakland Zoo and later met up with Mom Crane and Billy at Strait's for a delicious Asian-fusion dinner. The whole weekend was great, and we were all happy to spend time with Gma. Gracelyn especially misses her and is really looking forward to the first weekend in May, when Gma and Aunt Barrie come to help us celebrate Gracelyn's first birthday!
