Here are just a few more photos of Grandma and Papa Terry's visit. After working hard for 2 weeks in the house on the bookcase and bunkbed stairs, we figured we get out and see some of the sights. Our first stops were on Friday afternoon to Old Town and then to Downtown Disney.
Alice and Jane meeting a ferret for the first time at Old Town in Orlando. I had never been to Old Town, but it's pretty cool and pretty dead during the day. It's more of a night life permanent carnival.
Jane and I enjoying the little roller coaster.
Jane on the bikes. We were the only ones on the rides.
At Downtown Disney
They must always take a picture with Aurora and Cinderella
We added a photo op with Winnie, Tigger, and Piglet too
They also took a ride on the train
Jane and Mr. Potato Head. I love her pose with her hand on her hip.
Alice giving Mickey a hug
They had performers as statues outside the House of Blues. Alice actually went up to her and the statue bent down and held her hand. It was too cute. Some lady in the crowd said, "That kid's gonna have nightmares forever." It was Alice's idea to go see her, not ours.
Saturday we headed to Fort Christmas. It was a Fort built during the Seminole Indian wars. The fort was started on Christmas day, so the whole town is named Christmas, Florida. There were a bunch of old Florida homes. It was free and pretty neat. The highlight for the girls was the park.

Papa and Grandma Terry with baby Kate in her blessing dress.
We tried to get her to smile. She only smiled a couple of times and after about 20 pictures, was done.
Kate's 2 month stats are weight: 13 lbs 9 oz 97%
height: 23 3/4 inches 90%
She's getting big!
And she's done!
And here is the not quite finished (still needs a few more book shelves, crown moulding, and a window seat cushion) work of art that Kevin and his dad built while Bob was here. I am so grateful for such talented family members! And I am so excited to decorate!!!! And thank you to Valene also for painting most of it.
So as you can see I have moveable shelves on the sides, with 2 cabinets underneath. And then under the window there is a box and 2 cubbies. I love it!!!!! I will also replace the vertical blinds with something else. Still debating! (For a before shot, go to the blog post before this one with the Christmas cards. It's not great, but it shows you a little of how the room looked). I'll see if I can find a better one for you.
Thanks again Bob and Valene for coming to visit. We had a wonderful time with you! Come again soon. We love you!

Amazing, amazing bookshelves. What talent! The girls are too cute. I love Alice's crazy hair and Jane's awesome poses.
So much fun. I cannot believe how big Kate is getting, I hope we get to meet her soon and see the rest of the family too. Kyle loves to see pics of your family and can name everyone when he sees pics. The bookcase looks good too.
Man oh man! Kate is SO stinkin' cute!
