Palm Springs/Meeting Grandma Snethen

Kyle's camping season has officially started.  We had a great 5 weeks together and I'm sad he has to go back to work.  I was definitely getting used to having him around all of the time.  Not only does he change dirty diapers, but he puts Elliott to sleep in half the time it takes me.  I think Kyle is looking forward to a break from getting his clothes dirty with pee, poop and spit-up.  Yes, Kyle has been pooped on several times...and had pee shoot in his face!  (On one poop occasion when Kyle was changing Elliott's diaper he pooped and it shot off the changing table, onto Kyle's shirt and hit the carpet.  We both think he has a promising future ahead of him!)

My mom came to visit Elliott for a week during Kyle's first camp.  It was definitely love at first sight!  We had a great week together, even though it was 100+ degrees the entire time we were there!  Elliott had his first swim in the pool at night when it was cooler.  Not sure he liked it very much, but he has plenty of time to get used to swimming.  It was nice having my mom around to hang out with.  I even got some "me" time, which is pretty amazing!  Elliott enjoyed snuggling with Grandma...that is after I demonstrated the bouncing motion he likes.  Kyle joined us our last 2 days in Palm Springs, which was nice to be together.
