Visit from Uncle Gary and Aunt Michelle (technically great uncle and aunt but they don't seem that old)

We were excited to have a visit from my Uncle Gary and Aunt Michelle. They are some of my extended family from Wisconsin. Michelle's brother lives in NC so they were having a family trip down at the Outer Banks. We were so glad they took some time to visit us as well!

In the morning before they came, Lorelei was wanting to watch the computer so she put her doll on the chair first, then screamed at me to get her up there. :) She was dancing to "Do Wop Hop" but quit when I tried to film it. Later she even got down by herself!



Lorelei has also decided now that she is one she no longer wants a bottle (refused them each time offered so we are officially done with bottles!) and also no longer wants a morning nap! I'm not so happy about that choice, but try and get her to go down and its basically impossible. It also makes her a bit of bear a large part of the day! She doesn't sleep much longer than her old afternoon naps so the evening is also very cranky. We'll have to work out the kinks soon we hope.

Anyway, she woke up a bit before our visit from Gary and Michelle. They enjoyed seeing her room and reading a few books. Later we went to the park where they got to watch her climb all over. They got some good pics, but I will have to get copies from them! She enjoyed having a new audience and did some of her tricks for them as well. Then we hung out some more and got to visit with Brad as well after he got home from work.

A couple funny moments: Michelle had a purse with a dog on it that Lorelei LOVED of course, so we used that to get her to look at the camera! She even got one of her smiling! :) So now I just need to find one of those purses and we'll always have good pictures. :) Also, while at the park (right by a pond) Gary said "what is making that duck sound?" and Michelle and I look at him and at the ground and right next to him (maybe a foot away) are two ducks! Well, that's what was making the duck sound. :)




Sorry I forgot to take the paci out!

We are so glad to have family visit and get to meet Lorelei!
