Mom and Shanna

My Mom and Shanna along with Olivia came to visit for a week. Here are a few pics of various things we did. It was low-key but a very nice visit! Funny that is was a "low key" visit because they were here right smack dab in the middle of Hurricane Sandy, was obviously was devastating to so many. We did not get hit by much of the storm, but were advised to stay in.  It was crazy to be a part of a storm that shut down so many parts of New York and so many other places!

Addy got her new glasses. second pair in just 6 months. Hopefully these will last a little longer. They are so so cute on her! They fit her great, with size and personality.

We made sugar cookies as part of the Halloween dinner. All the kids love to do things in the kitchen with me, and believe it or not (most of the time) I love to have them helping. I want them to have good memories of being in the kitchen with me, since it seems I am in there most of my life...

I LOVED having a baby in the house! It seems that its been so long.

She is a doll!

Stacee who was Shanna's physical Therapist in Lubbock now lives in Maryland and came for dinner one night it visit with us and Shanna. She is a great person and Shanna was on the moon that she got to spend some quality time with her. She always tells us that Shanna was one of her biggest "success". She worked very very hard to get Shanna where she is today.

We made a trip out to the inner harbor. I always talk about how its so nice that we don't get much wind here like west Texas, but this day was windier than all get out!

My Mom took us all out for pizza, which was great to get out! We didn't get out much since the weather was so bad! 

First photo of the kids with there newest cousin Olivia! They all loved her.
