five fact friday

 

1. Grandma Polly visited us this week!  It was such a treat to have her around.  She loved helping with Quinn, and I loved getting some extra help during the day!  Plus, Matt and I were able to go out to dinner without having to arrange for a babysitter. :)

2.  We lowered the pack n' play for Q to play with her toys.  She was beginning to pull herself up, so we took immediate action!  It's cute to look over and see her actually playing with toys in there.

3.  What visit from Grandma is complete without some good old fashioned spoiling?  Thank you, Grandma! 

4.  I know these pictures look strange, but if only you could have smelled the aroma in our kitchen while cooking this meal!  This was my second time caramelizing onions..oh my goodness..it smells like my Grandma Marilyn's kitchen!  I would caramelize onions just for the smell alone!  And, those are sweet potatoes, not carrots ;)

5.  I finished Natalie and Stratton's b-day presents this week.  Hope they like these little zipper pouches (I am working on more for lemon bee too!) to put in their backpacks this year.  I filled them with some fun things like stickers and fruity flavored tic tacs.  I can't believe they will be four and six years old this year!!  (Don't worry, Baby Oliver, I bought you something special too!!)
