An Interesting Week

2013-04-29

This week wasn't too exciting until Friday. Mostly we did the usual stuff.

Getting ready to drive my truck.

But on Friday, Grandma Wynne and Grandpa Al came to visit! And they brought my wagon! We went for a walk with Duke and I rode in the wagon. Mommy made blueberry waffles for lunch, and while I was taking a nap, Grandpa Al put a tricycle together for me.

Then something bad happened. Grandma and Grandpa took me out to ride the tricycle and Grandma fell down. She hurt her wrist and her knee. She went to the emergency room and found out she fractured her wrist and her knee. She went home with Grandpa on Friday night.

On Saturday morning we went to Grandma and Grandpa's house to help Grandma because she can't walk or use her right arm. Mommy and Daddy did the helping. I tried to make Grandma smile.

Great-grandma Darlene and Uncle David (this Uncle David is Grandma's brother) came to see Grandma in the afternoon. Daddy forgot to take pictures of them.

Grandpa got home early enough that I could go see his truck again. And Uncle Denny was done at the same time so I got to see both trucks! Uncle David came with us so he could see the trucks, too. And we went in Grandma and Grandpa's new car.

Look! I'm driving Grandpa's truck!

Grandpa! There's a doggie on your truck!

Oh look! It's Grandpa's other truck!

Daddy and I went to visit Great-grandma Dorothy on Sunday morning. Pete was there with his motorcycle!

Uncle David (this Uncle David is Grandpa's brother) came over, too. And then Uncle John. I had fun at Great-grandma's house. And then I had to rest a little.

Great-grandma played trains with me.

In the afternoon we went to visit Urizen, Tennyson, and Xander. Those boys have a lot of energy! We played with bubbles on the deck and Urizen had a bus and a tractor that I drove all over the place. And I jumped on the trampoline and went down the slide - and Daddy was busy having fun, so he didn't take any pictures of all that. He did remember to get one picture of all of us sitting on the couch.

And that was the week. Grandma Wynne is doing better than she was on Friday, but it will be a while before she is all better. We will go see her next weekend, too.

That's all for now - take care!
