Mark and I have been busy having a good visit with Grandpa and Grandma Fletcher in Olathe, KS. Mark just a few days ago started sleeping in his own bed again. This is really good for me after he woke me up out of a sound sleep with a kick to my head! He is not the best bedfellow! We have been talking to Dada on Skype every morning and going for an hour-long walk with Grandma most mornings to get our exercise in. Grandma has been taking fantastic care of us by making bacon and eggs every morning since we arrived. We are getting so spoiled! Mark gets very animated when Grandpa comes home in the evenings. He and Grandpa go and check up on Robbie Ray (Robot lawnmower). They also spend some time at the piano. Grandpa is a very fine piano player and Mark is, well, two… need I say more! They also watch a video showing the new NASA program planned trip back to the moon once a night—Mark loves it to say the least! He would sit and watch it over and over again if allowed. Uncle David is working on his part of this program at NASA in Houston and is who sent the video clip that has captured Mark’s imagination. We have also been spending time with Aunt Amy and her two boys Jacob and Alex who live just down the street. Uncle John and Aunt Donna and their two girls, Jennifer and Megan, came for a visit this past weekend on their way to a family church camp. Mark had a grand time with his Uncle John. It was very cute. Aunt Donna found a coupon on slickdeals.net for free Thomas the Tank Engine trains at Toys R Us. So, we made a few trips to Toys R Us for trains for Mark to play with here at Grandma and Grandpa’s house. He enjoys choo-choo trains! Mama and Grandma also purchased him a few neat wood puzzles that we have been enjoying doing with him. We went to the family church camp for a day which was cut a bit short because we had so generously shared our nasty cold with Grandpa. Sorry about that Grandpa! We call Andrew three times a week (I wish I could call more often…). It is wonderful to hear his voice to say the least. He has had an ear infection—poor guy! He is now in Iowa visiting family. Mark loves hearing Andrew’s voice on the phone. It is very sweet. He really misses him and talks about his big Baba all the time. Although what he says about him I’m just not quite sure. We have changed our plans a bit and will be here in Olathe, KS until July 9th when Grandpa will drive us back to Warsaw. Last night for our 3rd Anniversary Grandpa and Grandma took us out to eat to a great new restaurant called Spin Neapolitan Pizza. It was very delicious and we are all looking forward to going back.
