Grandma Rosie is on the first flight out tomorrow, and we are certainly going to miss her. This afternoon she helped me make a peach pie (which consisted mostly of holding Adam, who wanted to help instead of sleep, dang it.) I am so glad that she's gotten to spend this time with us, and that we get to see her again in less than a month! I feel so lucky to be in my thirties and still have three of my grandparents around, and for them to be a part of my children's lives in person or on skype, in a very meaningful way.
While she was here Grandma put the finishing touches on her Lorax quilt for Adam, and I wanted to take pictures of both kids with Grandma Rosie and their fancy quilts (they also both have UCLA quilts, which are smaller and more approved for day to day fun.) Hilarity ensured:
Those children. If it's not one, it's the other one. We can't win, but we certainly can have fun.
Lastly, here is Adam and I doing his favorite song.
Tim and Meg met in 2003 at UCLA, only three weeks before Meg graduated, and only three months before she moved to Canada for graduate school. They dated long distance for a year, got engaged in 2004 and married in 2005. Tim makes video games as an actual job. After five years in LA, in a 500 square foot apartment, we moved back behind the Orange Curtain and bought our first house in October 2009. We followed up that fun by having our first daughter, Elizabeth Rosemarie in October 2010.
Tim is 6'6" and Meg is 5'3". Yes, we know we look mismatched in pictures. Yes, Meg tries to stand on things to be taller whenever she can.
