We were so happy to welcome my mother and sister to Quadville!
They arrived Sunday afternoon and left Wednesday morning.
We had a BABY packed visit!
Deanie was happy to have her arms filled with baby girls!
My mother had been looking forward to this day for months and months!
The visit - which was originally scheduled for August and then September - was delayed because of Mother needing a cancerous mole on her face removed.
She looks beautiful and the surgery healed up nicely!
She held one baby after another until she had held all FOUR!
Too bad I didn't get a pic of her holding Logan!
This is Trystan.
Aunt Deanie was a huge hit with the quads!
She could make all of them laugh and laugh!
She made us ALL laugh!
Harrison warmed right up to her.......
.....and Kailey LOVED her Aunt Deanie doing the 'Little Green Fly!'
This was the very FIRST time we noticed Kailey imitating!
We celebrated their arrival with some seriously good food!
Mike has a state of the art grill and he knows how to use it!!
Meet and Greet Time for the siblings!
Love how their toes touch!
Here's Great Grandma with Logan!
Amber is such a good mom! Nothing was easy about her quad pregnancy and the 57 days in the hospital on a Magnesium Sulphate IV! OR the 2 months in the NICU as she traveled back and forth every day while trying to recover her strength!
Truth be told - she is STILL trying to recover! That doesn't stop her from doing everything she can do to help the babies in their development. She is a real MOM!
She has added these bumbo seats to their daily routine.
Mother was there for this the next day and got right down there on the floor with them!
She is amazing!
I HAD to show them our favorite Mexican restaurant one evening!
They also got a tour of our camper home!
We had so much fun!
The next day Deanie was back to making the babies laugh!!
Trystan DOES love her Aunt Deanie!!
So does Logan but we had to admit - she was a harder audience!
Harrison was sporting his newest cap from Aunt Summer!
Can't leave Kailey out of the Quad Squad Parade!
Between all of us - we took hundreds of pictures!
Mother was excited to have this time with the quads!
She was sad when it was time to leave.......so were WE!
We all had such a good time.
There was a baby in every one's arms nearly the entire time!
I joined them for breakfast at their hotel for one last visit!
Seems like the time flew by!!
I was happy they were able to 'see' Quadville for themselves!
There is SO much more going on than you would believe possible.
Thank you, Deanie, for coming!!!!
Thank you for bringing Mother!!!
PLEASE come back!!!
We miss you already!
you should title your blog Family Tales like Veggie Tales... this is great and oh so much fun even just looking at the photos. the babies are getting their own personalities now
ReplyDeleteLooks like all had a great time. It was a very good trip for Mother. Just so you know, it's not Green Fly, it's green frog, blink,blank went the little green frog one day, blink, blank went the little green frog, till his eyes went blink-blank-blunk!
ReplyDeleteYou will need to learn this since the babies like it!

ReplyDeleteAnd you will have pictures, to show the Quads, when they get older. :-)
