Great Grandparents Are Great

June will never have to wonder where she needs to go to be positively dipped in love and sprinkled with kisses. On our trip to the Midwest, she saw a bunch of Great Grandparents and got some love from them all.

(While this picture was taken, another woman wheeled up to our group and wanted to look at June. It was kind of a bad moment because it was a little hectic trying to get everyone in place and everyone looking and not crying [this is mostly about June, but not exclusively]. And then the woman holds out her arms like she wants to hold June. Now, I had already told Michael [who was holding June at the time] that I didn't really want any randoms holding her. I know that babies brighten up the lives of people in homes, but those people also sometimes have contagious things that we can't know about ahead of time. So when the poor lady held up her wobbling arms, not only did Michael quietly say, 'Yeah, I don't think we're going to do that,' but Judy also stepped in to redirect. The trick to any potentially awkward baby-related moment is numbers. Overwhelming numbers.)

"Mmm! Salad!"

Cuddling with Mimi:
Don't they both look so pleasant?

And, of course, some lovin' from Mommy.
