Gramma Moose

Today, we took off to Sullivan, Wisconsin to see my family. No sooner had we pulled into the garage when my mom, dad, and brother ran over to the car to see Aoife. They were so excited that I think they forgot who transported her to see them! My parents fell in love with her instantly. My dad couldn't get over how tiny she was and was quite shocked when he held her to feel the bones in her spine. My brother was also very excited and was so gentle with her. My mom spent every spare minute as she could holding her and taking care of her. She was really good and patient with Aoife. She help her for hours helping Aoife get up burps and rocking her and putting her to sleep. But for some reason, nobody wanted to change her diaper. My sisters came sheepishly home after school and stared at her. I think they were not yet prepared for her lack of development in social skills, so they admired her from afar. Michelle had shot up a foot since I last saw her at Christmas, and Erin's spunky personality is starting to shine. It was great to be back with my family again because I's missed them all so much.
