February - the month of Grandma

The month of Grandma has begun. For various reasons, we are seeing my Mom every week this month, and the girls are PUMPED. Mom came up Saturday to watch the girls for us while we went to my theater company's fundraiser. As soon as we buzzed Mom in, Emma shouted "Grandma!" as she flung open the door and Sophie crawled faster than I've ever seen her, going "Ga-ma, Ga'ma!" Approximately five minutes after Mom's arrival, both girls had accosted her on the couch and formed a Grandma sandwich.
Emma managed to get Grandma alone during Sophie's naps, and of course she took full advantage of the time. Here she is with Mom, playing Beauty Parlor.
Meanwhile, the fundraiser - a Rock Band tournament planned very effectively by my little sister Jayme - was a huge success. We made a lot of money and had a great time. I don't think anyone had more fun than Chris, though. He was one of the "celebrity" judges of the event, and he was in rare form. Here he is as Ozzy Osbourne...with his daughter Kelly (a.k.a. our friend Whitney).
Next weekend, we are off to Indiana for Cadin's 1st birthday party. And now...I must take advantage of an empty house and get to work!
