Friday after I got off work we went for a road trip to Walnut Grove to visit my friend Shelly and her two little ones. I have been wanting to visit for a long time. I just kept debating if I could do it by myself on a Friday after being up all night, so when we found out Andy had two weeks off before school started I emailed Shelly to see if we could come for a visit. The last time I saw Shelly and Bryce it was a couple weeks before Jillian was born. Her little boy, Bryce is 3 month older than Drew and her little girl, Reese is 3 month younger than Jilli. If only we lived closer, they would all be the perfect playmates.
We are so jealous of a room that's purpose is a play room. We have a name for that at the Roberts' house, it is called the living room. Drew calls the downstairs the play room. That kid loves to play down there, I guess it is just different toys that he plays with all the time.
On the way Drew and I were talking about where we were going, I told him the day before and we looked and Bryce and Reese's picture. So we are riding along and he ask where we are going, I say "to visit Bryce and Reese" and Drew says "yeah and Tammy (Uncle Bryce's wife)." So I we started calling Bryce Davis, little boy Bryce to keep him separate in Drew's little mind from Uncle Bryce.
Little boy Bryce had some very cool motorized vehicle in his garage. The problem is that Drew doesn't have much driving experience, so Andy had to stay close to him to make sure he didn't crash into anything.
Jilli was following Drew and as soon as she was about to reach him he would take off. Once she made a reach for the back of the gator and he took off and she fell, Andy said it was like a cartoon scene. Drew was not being ornery on purpose just trying to learn how to drive.
Drew and Jilli cruisin. Andy looks distressed in this picture, imagine what it will be like when he is sixteen, yikes!
We when first got there Reese had just woke up from her nap and then all these new people were in her house. She was clinging to her mommy and then once she sat down to play, Jillian came over and took her binky out of her mouth. That caused a small meltdown. Very confusing for the bean, they have the same kind of binkies. After Reese woke up and had some lunch she warmed up to us strangers.

Before we left that morning we dropped the girls off at the vet to be groomed. We had to pick them up by 5:00, which seemed like plenty of time. But we had so much fun at the Davis' that time flew and before we knew it, we were running behind. We made it to the vet right at 5:00 and the girls had to ride home in the car with us. Bailey rode between the kid's car seats and 90 lb Lucy rode on my lap. I am sure we looked ridiculous, oh well. We had a wonderful visit and I hope that they will come up to see us sometime. The next morning Drew said "I miss little boy Bryce." :)
