Cider Pressing
I did not see enough of my parents this summer. Fortunately they were able to swing down for a quick 22 hour visit this past weekend. It was so much fun and felt so happy! I loved having them here and only wish for more time. I'm so grateful they were able to sneak down for a visit.
Maeve loves dogs so it was extra fun for her to have my parent's dog in the house for a day. I feel like I just basked in my parents love the entire time they were here. It was lovely.
We've had these blocks since forever, but for the last few years they've been acting as steps in our pantry for the spice jars. I recently pulled them out (still haven't solved that spice storage problem) and then they were migrated to Holly and Greta's room. Finally they made their way downstairs and into Maeve's hands. And oh my goodness, SO many memories of my babies playing with these blocks! I just love that my girls Maeve got some play time with these. What will I do when the baby phase is over and done with? I think my heart may break.
Here's my little Holly Bear playing with the blocks at about the same age Maeve is now.
Lately, Maeve has occasionally begun to sign "bath" quite enthusiastically after supper and saying, "ba, ba!" with the full expectation that we will put her in the bath. She can be quite insistent! And then when she comes out of the tub, she likes to be wrapped up in a towel and snuggled. I'm just not sure how we lived without her before she was born.
