Dear Lily and Sam,
Here's a couple of silly pictures for you!
Picture #1 is Aunt Stephanie's toes before we went to Splash last weekend - I told her she should repaint them but she insisted that this polish was SPECIAL because it was the polish she put on her toes when you were here in October when we went to Splash together!
Picture #2 is Gigi's toes tonight - because I'm feeling a little bit silly and wanted to post my toes - I put new polish on my toes before we went to Splash, so this polish is a week old. As you can see from my big toes, I haven't shaved since Splash, either! And on my right foot are my beautiful scars from breaking my foot the spring before Lillian Jayce was born.
Picture #3 is Brutus - eating treats! He loves to have treats, and I try to remember to give them to him even when you are not here to help - - but poor Butski needs his Lily to help Gigi remember treats! My what a big tongue you have, Brutus!
Picture #4 is my friend Hattie Cecilia Walsworth playing with your mommy's favorite toy for the very first time. Hattie always has very very big eyes, don't worry! She wasn't about to cry!
Picture #5 is the corner of the blankey that Gigi made for Hattie Cecilia Walsworth - I didn't make it before she was born, though because I'm slow like that! This picture also has all of your toys out while Hattie was visiting Gigi one day when her mommy (Jess) was at the gym!
Picture #6 is most of your toys at Gigi's house put away and waiting for the next time you come - or the next time we have care group - or the next time Hattie comes over (probably that will happen first). I wish you could come and play with the toys! Do you like the new basket I got for putting the small toys in? I decided to use the recycling box in the office for actually recycling paper!
And Picture #7 is your very silly Aunt Stephanie taking a picture of herself while she is sitting in my recliner. This was taken before Splash - I think - at least it was taken before she got her hair trimmed on Friday evening.
Picture #8 was going to be of Aunt Bethany sitting in the other recliner right now - - but first she said, "Please don't take a picture of me" and then she said "Please don't post it" - - so I guess you are out of luck! But right now I'm a happy momma because Aunt Stephanie, Aunt Bethany, and Uncle Brother are all home - - I know that 2 of them are usually home, but I'm happy because Aunt Bethany is home for a week from college and I miss her when she's gone!
I also miss you and your mommy and daddy very much and I really hope we can come to visit you very soon!
love - hugs - kisses,
Gigi
Haha this was great! I just read it to Lily (and kind of to Sam cause she playing on the floor near us). Lily liked the picture of the KITTY and BABY and BASK (she noticed the basket right off the bat! Maybe because it's similar looking to our book basket... which she turned around and pointed to!).
ReplyDeleteTell Stephanie she's beautiful and I love how sentimental she is... but she really needs to repaint her toenails! Tell her to go buy that same color at Walmart if necessary (I can look it up for her) but for heaven's sake take that crap off!
Also, just letting you know that Lily has 100% confirmed your name. I said "we're going to get on the computer to see Grandma's blog post" and she immediately said GIGI.
It was magical :o)
LOVE YOU
sigh! I so wish I could see Lily interacting with stuff on a regular basis - - she's getting so 'into' life (like a 2-year-old should) and I feel like I'm missing it! I love being Gigi, btw!
DeleteI figured she'd like the 'kitty' picture - that 'baby' is about 5 months old in the picture, I'm not seeing her this week b/c her mom's got a cold and she's packing for going to FL next week - funny how LJ pointed out the 'bask'
Steph says she's not really sentimental just lazy! and she just now said, 'maybe by summer it will be off completely!' goofy girl!
LOVE YOU TOO!!!
