Uncle Ryan/GG Visit

It goes without saying that whenever family lets us know they'll be coming to town, we get giddy with excitement! I think having kids has made us miss/cherish family time exponentially. We struggle with when we should tell Kyle that someone's coming though, as waiting can be difficult. This time, we told him early and Kyle had to wait four whole days!!!!!! So, for four whole days we heard, "It's just too long for Uncle Ryan to come!" Eventually, the day came and we got to pick Rudy's younger brother up from the airport. Kyle was overjoyed and couldn't wait to clip out of his car seat and run to his Uncle. :) The poor guy didn't know a moment of peace until he boarded that plane again!! 

Here's a shot of an early morning coffee/juice conversation with Mr. Monkey listening in.

Kyle soaked up any and every spare "Uncle" minute all the way up to his bedtime. Here, Ryan is reading Goodnight, Chicago! :)

Then, GG came!!! Since she's often going from one plane to the next for her job, we like to take her to the ocean as often as we can.

Thank you, Ryan and GG, for all your time and effort to get here. We LOVE having you.
