First day of school and Bapa's visit

First of all, can we talk about how big my little girl is getting? Wednesday was her first day of Tot School (more on that coming Monday!) and she was so excited.

Got my backpack, ready to go! 

Yaaaaay, school! 

LOVE this cheesy grin thing she does. My attempt is a little scary, but don't look at me. How cute is my kid???

Then our week kept getting better - Bapa came to visit!

It was a little chilly, but we went to the park anyway.

Saturday we took Dad on a culinary adventure to Gourdough's. Man, that place is amazing. Hans and Em both loved the giant mason jars, too.

Nutty Valentine and New Jack City. Oh. My. Gosh. Heaven.

Some kind of French Toast thing... It was gone after she set it in front of Hans.

More train rides! Even more fun with Bapa

And, of course, bubbles. We wanted to fly a kite but tried two stores and couldn't find one!

She just learned about tracing hands. She kept ordering, "Bapa, 'and!" and then she wanted to do hers and add rings. They did this over, and over, and over again. Thanks for being a good sport, Dad!

Late night antics. We get a little loopy. And play dog pile on daddy.

He sure knows how to crack her up! She laughed so hard she could barely breath.

She sure loves him. She didn't want to let go of him for one second. We are so grateful for the time we get to spend with him.

What a great week we've had. Hope yours was just as good :)
