ZERO DAYS!

After recieving a daily count-down at 6:00 am from Addi who just pulled off another link in her paper chain for "Days until Grandma comes" I don't know who was more excited when she ran into my room and could finally say MOM! zero more days until Grandma Comes!!!!
Unfortuately for her she had to wait the whole day and into the night (Mom's flight didn't come in until 10:00pm) we put her to bed at her usual time and then woke her up to drive to the airport and pick up Grandma. It was fast because her bags were lost (they did arrive at 5:00am the next day).

Thursday
I didn't have Theo that day and we went to the Children's Museum. I only had a few quarters so we could only stay for an hour but we packed in a lot of fun!


Checking out the turtles in a glass bottom aquarium.


Grandma having her food seasoned to perfection.


The Bubble Room will do that to you


more bubbles
Friday
Next it was off to the Science museum where mother designed a sweet paper/paperclip/straw glider. And Addi participated in a MIT child development study, she did really well but the coolest part is of course the certificate.


The late afternoon movie with popcorn and orange slices became a ritual enjoyed by all. The only problem (from Addi's perspective) was that Grandma kept closing her eyes!! Poor mom she can't catch a break.

Saturday
We spent the foggy and drizzly morning at Piers Park. It has a great play area and one of the best views of the city...that is if it isn't foggy.

I know it's hard to tell but this is an airplane and Addi is taking off to Boston.


A favorite past-time with these two

Playing at the park is harder than it looks.
I love these last couple of pictures of Mom and Addi just enjoying eachother.
I'm so glad Mom could come thank you especially to Chelsea for making it possible.
