My mom was able to come for a week to help us after Brady was born. It was so nice having her there to take the boys to school, make me food, and the best thing, sleep!! She decorated my tree and hung garlands on our staircase, yay.
We watched a lot of Christmas movies during the month of December. One of Alex's favorite things to do is to get in comfy clothes, watch a movie, and have some popcorn.
Too bad Al is the only one who doesn't enjoy movies unless it's based on a true story, haha.
I really wanted to try to take a picture like this, but the lighting wasn't that great, the blanket wouldn't lay flat and Brady was wide awake.
A picture with Grandma by our staircase lined with garland lights she worked on the entire day. We also need a taller tree, everything looks so mini in our house.
My mom kept talking about going to Waco so we got adventurous and drove down there Friday morning with Al. It was about a 2 hour drive, the weather was fabulous, and it was really cool to see the Silos and store from the famous show Fixer Upper.
Signing the guest book.
Our last day with Grandma, so sad. We went and ran some errands together and took Alex to the Dollar Store.
Saying Goodbyes to Brady. Why is it so hard when MIL and Moms leave. It would be so great to live close especially in these early years when extra help would be amazing.
Our dinner at Chuys. I'm breaking all my rules about chain restaurants, but they just work with big groups and kids.
Showing Grandma the Biggest indoor Christmas tree in the US. Maybe next time we can go ice skating.
Thanks for coming to help us for a week. Those extra naps, yummy salads, and help with the boys was amazing.
