Back in Illinois visiting part 1

Aug 28 – Sept 3, 2009

We got up very early, around 5 am and headed back to Illinois for some time of visiting family and friends.

Hailey showing off her new bike. We wasn’t there an hour and she had papa convinced she needed a new bike!

Papa went to look her old bike over to fix it and he told her she was right, she needed a new bike the old one was worn out. she ran into the house grabbed the picture of the new bike she had already picked out and said let’s go to Wal-mart papa. He tried to convince her to wait until tomorrow but she politely let him know they had enough day light left to go get the bike and for her to get home to ride it. Yep, you got it, off to Wal-mart we went and we were back with plenty of daylight for her to ride her new bike. Of course i took these pictures the next day.

Of course Toby man had to have his papa time in as well. He is a papa boy big time! For me he screams and throws big time fits, but for papa he does great with no problems! Yes, you got it, makes grandma furious … little fart!

Of course, he couldn’t pick the cereal off he plate, papa had to pick it up and hand each one to him. Then we needed some milk with our cereal. Of course as you can see Lexi was a bit jealous and had to get as close to papa as she could also. She doesn’t like sharing and is very jealous of esp the grandkids and the other dogs, esp our Lucy dog who is a daddy girl big time as well.

Hailey was eating her basic junk food she loves to eat when grandma is around and Tob man was chasing the dogs with his sister stroller. Hmmmm i remember Hailey doing the same thing to poor Bambi (her dog) when she was the same age … LOL We spent Saturday babysitting for the grandkids while mom and dad were both working. It was a blast but man exhausting.
