Surprise - Mimi's Here!

Emily had no idea that upon waking on Thursday (the 14th) morning she would find Mimi in the guest bed!  Needless to say, she was pretty excited!  They didn't get to have too much time to play though because we had a big day planned.  A big day of DRIVING!  First, out to see beautiful 9 day old, Cadence.
Between Mimi and myself, we did a pretty terrible job taking pictures - too much gabbing - so instead of seeing Cadence posing with her Mama (Heather, in green) and Daddy you can see her with Mimi.

Such a doll baby!  Congratulations to Heather and Steve!
Our visit was plenty long considering there is a newborn in the house and a tired Mama, but could never be long enough for all of the visiting we would like to do with Christy and fam!  Thanks for having us!
After our baby fix we were back in the car headed to Dele's house where Mimi was to stay the weekend.  Emily found Dele's bowl of buttons pretty quick and had a BLAST playing with all of them (check out the table in second pic) and Dele even put one on a string to show Emily a favorite childhood pastime of hers.
Emily listened to the hum a little too closely and the string ripped out several hairs.  Just a little wince by Emily though... she really liked those buttons!

After a bit of hanging around...
we bid farewell to Mimi and Dele and headed home.
What a day... out at 9:00ish and home at 6 (terrible traffic on the way home).  No nap for the weary, but a great fun day!
