A Day With Miss A

Happily, Ben was invited to come to El Paso for residency interviews with UMC*. For those of you who have lived away from El Paso for a while, Thomason has grown into a very well-respected teaching hospital associated with the 4-year medical school here. Unhappily Ayrel could not come with him because of her school/work. Happily he brought Avery with him (for the grandparent's, of course!)

I picked them up at the airport yesterday and was able to spend a little bit of time with them before I needed to head to work.

Ben fielding a call and Avery recovering from her travels

Today I was able to be the GIC** all day long! We had a lovely day, and because a certain Tia made me pinkie swear and make a blood oath, I am posting all the pictures ASAP.  Avery even agreed to narrate.

I really was happy to see Uncle Kris!

He wanted to hold me immediately!

It's just that.....well.....

I needed a diaper change and something to eat!

Everything's much better now....

I'm back to kicking up my heels!

I really do adore Uncle Kris....

But a girl must get her beauty rest.

Lucky me - I got to meet a real V.I.P.!

And make friends with some wild animals!

They didn't scare me much

Well, maybe just a little bit when they growled....

 

But I just growled back and they settled down.

And then Grandpa came home from work!

We watched the NY Yankees & the Detroit Tigers game.

I loved it, and made sure Grandpa knew not to change the channel. 

(I only fussed if he did).

Stumpy came and sat by me, and I patted his head. He liked that.

Grandma and I went on a nice walk around the neighborhood. She showed me where my mom's friends used to live. And I really liked watching the birds flying in and out of some tall trees. And the branches swaying in the breeze.

Uh oh.....Kris caught me when I needed another diaper change and a bottle.

Ah, peaceful slumber. I'm an expert at naps!

And so dang cute when I wake up!

It's a cycle I like to repeat.

Sweet Dreams!

The End.

Tomorrow I am pretty sure there will be a visit to the other Grandma's house. I'll find a good excuse reason, I'm sure!

Another certain Tia is looking for evidence that I actually really did take Avery to get her ears pierced.  I am texting her as soon as I finalize this post so she can realize how very gullible she is!
