Wyoming and Ohio comes to Iowa

9/13/14


Mike and I counted up that Maddi has NINETEEN Grandparents and Great Grandparents (that we know of). Uh, yea… that’s A LOT of grandparents!? LOL Since receiving Maddi last year, she has never met one set of Great grandparents from Wyoming (Mike’s grandparents). They came for a visit, along with Mike’s Aunt and Uncle from Ohio and Maddi ate ALL them up!  LOL


It was very special to see her love on them all, except that Maddi can be kind of a brute when she is playing… we had to constantly remind her that she cannot bounce, wrestle, jump, pull, etc… on them because they are “OLD”. LOL It’s our little inside joke to make her not want to “attack” them. She just giggles a sneaky giggle because of their reaction to her saying they are old, and leaves them alone. LOL
She even had an early birthday party with her cousin (hosted by Mike’s mom). It was a very sweet idea, so that everyone that came into town could share some birthday love for the girls. Her cousin’s b-day was a week before their visit, and Maddi’s is the week after their visit… so It was actually perfect!


Thank you for the travels our family made and all the love that Maddi received this weekend. She is so lucky to have such a warm loving family to share her life with. We love Maddi with our whole hearts, and it’s so awesome to see her family does too. Thank you also to Grandma Sherri and Papa Steve for all the b-day fun and yummy treats! I think it’s pretty safe to say that the girls loved it!
