Nana and Bop-pa's visit


As soon as Nana and Bop-pa Kludt stepped in the door, Wade suddenly transformed into Wade, The Entertainer! He would dance and spin to music in the evenings, fake cough for pats on the back and make faces and giggle his way through lunch. Eventually though, he did calm down and his grandparents became another staple in his everyday life.

Every time they would walk back to their room, Wade would follow them and click (his signal for snack- I think because click and snack sound so much alike). Over the baby monitor, I would hear the rustle of a plastic bag and Wade would come out with a grin on his face carrying 2 cookies ("One for each hand").

Wade was also constantly on patrol for things that were not up to his standards. If Bop-pa would set a glass down on the table Wade would tell him "uh-oh," to make sure he knew this was not where it was supposed to go. This was also for doors that were left open and shoes left unattended on the floor.

Wade got a rocking horse/bouncer as a gift from his grandparents. He loves to sit on it and watch TV in the mornings. Bop-pa's pretty sure he's going to be able to manuver it around the house before too long!

It was so great having my parents here. They stayed for about 2 weeks and the time seemed to fly by! They got to visit my school and see me "in action," as well as get roped into announcing for a paper airplane contest- THANKS DAD! We went to my brother's new house in Canyon Lake, visited the Natural Gardener, built a sandbox and a million other things! I hate to see them go, but I know they will be back soon, when Wade's little cousin is born in June :) I can't wait...
