Grandma J Comes To Babysit!

Since Josh's Mom has the summer off from teaching, we decided that she would come up for a week in the summer to watch Natalie. Works out great for everyone because Grandma J gets Natalie all to herself and Josh and Kaija don't have to pay for daycare :-) The first weekend started with Grandma and Grandpa J watching Natalie while Josh and Kaija went to Richmond for the wedding of Kaija's college friend, Jen. Everything went great and Grandpa J took the opportunity to introduce Natalie to chocolate ice cream, which she thought was the greatest thing ever. Grandpa J left on Sunday and Grandma J spent the entire week entertaining Natalie with the maracas she brought back from Haiti, walks to the park and pool time in the backyard. She also managed to help Josh and Kaija a ton around the house with cooking, laundry and even surprised Kaija with a belated 30th birthday cake! Thanks Grandma J for everything and we hope you can come back real soon!
