Kylie May Hangs out at the grandparents Day 249

They survived! And when it comes to watching Mayday that is all you can ask for.  Gene and Carol actually said that they got more sleep than they expected, and Kylie made it the whole evening without any tears.  No tears and some decent sleep sounds exactly like what a couple apprehensive parents want to hear.  I know it ended up being a big relief for me.  I had to be out the door at 6:30 this morning for work training, and having Kylie stay at Mimi and Papa's really helped me get a great night sleep.  I was excited to wake up at 6:00 and realize that it was morning time and I hadn't missed any calls all night.  I guess our Thanksgiving dilemma (Nat and I both work) wont be such a big dilemma after all.

Nat and our little one spent the rest of the afternoon lounging around her parents house while we all just had a relaxing afternoon. The day after Nat works always ends up being a pretty mellow recovery day for all parties involved.

After dinner tonight Kylie proved that she can't yet excel at everything.  I'd say, right now, she is operating at about a 98% success rate at anything she tries. What could possibly fall into the 2% category?... I know one thing...JENGA! We thought it would be a fun after dinner game, and so did Kylie...until she tried to put a block on top of the tower.  It's all fun and games till a tower of wood comes crashing down around you.  Here's the sequence of events: Kylie sees the tower, she picks up a block, she grabs the mini skyscraper, loud crash, Kylie gets scared, cries for a second, then decides she wants nothing more to do with that game.  You know how the saying goes...you can't win em all (tell that to Ken Jennings).  Kylie will just have to settle for all the other things she is really good at.

more to come soon,

What do you do when it's 5:00am, Nat's at work, and you're at grandma and grandpa's house? Eat! duh!

Her cautious approach to this unstable structure is well placed.

What do you think guys? If I try to climb on it will it hold me?  I think so too.
