dad visit

Brett had to go on a work trip in October (I know, so behind) so my dad came to stay with us and help me stay sane with both boys. We had such a good time and did projects! My dad is like me; we don't sit still for long so we were itching to work on stuff; with the boys help of course!

Graham is always shy when people come through the doors at the airport. I think it takes him a minute to remember who the people are, and then, buds for life. Like why walk on the moving walkway when papaw can carry you?

Seriously, I think he had been in the house for like 5 minutes. Total grandpa mode. 

He brought Halloween presents for the boys. Here is Bennett with his. 

And Graham opening his. Thanks for the books guys!

I do not remember how he hurt his arm, but he let me put a band-aid on it. It looks like he is showing his muscles to the camera I love it. Bad news: he wouldn't me take off the band-aid, so it left the skin angry underneath it. Oops. 

In case you have a bumbo, know that if you turn it over, it becomes a tunnel. So cool. 

He did this all by himself. 

After his bottle, he looks like a little happy elf! I love this photo!

And this one too 

While outside, papaw was able to get Bennett to snooze. 

They both love to sit outside and watch the cars and buses go by. My dad taught Graham to look for the bus numbers, so now when they go by, he comes running up to tell me what numbers he saw. It is adorable. 

Bath time with the boys. Graham help put bubbles on Bennett to wash him. Then he rinsed his brother too.

My dad and I repainted the porch. You can see the newer paint color at the bottom of the picture. Bennett made sure we were working correctly, and Graham was holding on to the broom and 2 rollers. He was a bit more talkative and demanding while he watched us paint. 

Halloween craft time! 

Graham's pumpkin. Notice it has 2 masks on it. 

The morning my dad left. We were so glad to have him out here. We were super busy but had some good fun and quality time. Thanks again dad. We love and miss you!
