A Ride with Grandad / PUDDLE-HOPPIN!

Mommy can't seem to update her scrapbook -- i.e., this blog -- with the summer pics fast enough, so she's movin' on to recent fall events. (Will add summer pics later, though.)

Just last weekend, we drove up to Columbia to see the Baumgartner Grandparents, where the twins always want to see the stray kitties outside the apartment complex at the Lowman Home. Grace and Mommy went out to see them, and after the visible kitty ran under the building, Grace played with Chance's pickup truck (pics above). After lunch, she also snagged a ride in Grandad's wheelchair, to her delight (see VIDEO below). Chance briefly snuggled next to Grandmother back at their apartment.

And it rained much of last week, so on an afternoon when the rain had abated, Mommy donned the twins in their rain gear and headed outside. Temps were probably in the mid 80s, but when wet, the twins got a bit cold. We headed inside for a warm bath afterward.

Grace braves walking into the large puddle.
A bit too cold for her! "Chance, why did you jump into the cold water? You're going to be soooo cold!"

Lord have mercy, Chance LOVES splashing in puddles.
Mommy is talkin to Aunt Manda on her cell phone while she videos this one.
