Fun with Grandpa and Grandma

Grandma and Grandpa (the other set!) visited this week. It was fantastic to have extra hands around for entertaining Cameron and holding Matthew!

Cameron was very excited for Grandma and Grandpa to arrive on Wednesday. For unknown reasons, he decided that he would hide under the dining room table and surprise Grandpa and Grandma when they arrived. He was quite persistent and would not come out from under the table, lest the grandparents choose that very moment to pull into the driveway. Alas, Cameron's grand plan was foiled when he fell asleep under the table! I couldn't even wake him when Grandma and Grandpa did arrive -- he was out cold!Matthew seems very alert and aware -- when he is awake, that is! We got out Cameron's old Take-Along Swing and Matthew finds the plastic doggie and cat quite fascinating. Cameron is also of the belief that there are two things that will quiet a crying baby: a binky and tinny lullabies played by the swing.

Cameron was very lucky to get a new scooter from his grandparents. With a little practice, I'm sure he'll be zipping around in no time! And check out the color coordination here -- yellow helmet, shirt and scooter with accents of red, green and blue. Wow . . . I can already see the scrapbook page! Hmmm. Wonder how long it will be before I have time to scrapbook again?

What a nice picture of Grandma and Grandpa Trumpy with the boys. I'm glad they had such a nice visit. The scooter looks like a lot of fun for Cameron. Matthew seems very alert for his tender age!

We were surprised that Cameron was sleeping when we arrived on Wednesday. It was so much fun with Matthew and Cameron. Matthew seems so alert for being 2 weeks old. Can't wait to get back to see them again.
