Visit from Great Auntie Paula and Great Uncle Bob

Today(Wednesday) we were planning on going to Ingleton playgroup but by the time we were ready to go, it was almost over so we decided that it would be a big clean up day. Ethan was in his Baby Bjorn carrier as I vacuumed and cleaned up and tidied the house. Adam's been great with dishes, laundry and cooking. We managed to lose one of Ethan's shoes since his walk on Tuesday and it wasn't until supper time that we looked in the outside trash bin. I had emptied all the trash this morning without first looking through it and yup - his other shoe was inside on of the trash bags covered in yuckiness. Gee, I wonder who put that in there? It was a good thing I looked in the bin since the garbage truck is coming tomorrow. Then we played at home. Had a great long nap and when we woke up... Later in the afternoon, Papa Zee and Great Auntie Paula and Great Uncle Bob came to visit us! Great Auntie and Uncle are from Blackpool and own a bed and breakfast for stag parties and hen(bachelorette) parties. They were so kind to bring Ethan some amazing toys. A ring stacker and a shape sorting box! And we got some yummy shortbread!!! MMM! It was a lovely visit and we hope to make it to Blackpool soon to visit them and play on the beach. Papa Zee had to rush off shortly after Great Auntie and Uncle came. He and and Mama Zee had just come back from Beaconsfield the day before and had many things to do. We'll go and visit them tomorrow. At supper, Ethan did really well eating at the table with us! We had breaded turkey and boiled potatoes. He like the potatoes more that the breaded turkey and even had juice. I much prefer eating on our floors since they are laminate and easy to clean rather than Mama and Papa Zee's beautiful carpeted dining room. They are so great, leaving Bruno the dog to clean up after Ethan but seeing as Ethan is doing so well, maybe our next visit there, will be mess free?(This may be wishful thinking on my part. hahah)
