Getting a Grandma "fix"

Ryan learning to score with the camera. 

Check out the concentration of Max doing a score

I was assigned to work a couple jobs in Bellevue, WA, which is really close to Tony & Debbie's.  So I got to stay with them instead of doing a hotel.. So much better!!  I was able to spend some times with my Max & Ryan just before bedtime and enjoy reading & telling them stories.  Here are  a bunch of pics.

Not too happy here!!

Score with grandma

Funny face camera shot. "Grandma..what big teeth you have."  A favorite fairy tale we told. When I told them I was going to tell them Little Red Riding hood, Max said."Yes!! That's my favorite color."

Ready to blast off into dreamland

I was able to spend the day with them on a Saturday before my flight that evening.  Debbie took us to the Seattle Woodland Zoo.  Couldn't have been a more perfect sunshiny day.  Max all decked out in his Max the explorer garb.

Ryan ready to ride.  He's got his animal crackers ready. Bright sun!

Chill'n on the log bench

Beautiful little momma. Can't wait to meet this new little guy!

Ryan up and close with the bird statue. He loved hugging them all.

Explorer Max checking out the rocks to climb on.

"Look there's a bird or a plane or....."

Doing the African Bongo drums

Ryan checking out the elephants.  Max checking out if they have teeny tiny ears or large ears.

 So good to spend time with them.  Love that Max sat his chair in front of the window..waiting for me to get home from work one day.  Then when it was time to leave, Ryan crying and hugging me asking if he could "keep me."  Turns my heart light bright.
