Grandma Jenkins house!

We had a fun day with my mom and Grandma a couple of weeks ago:

 This is what Stockton looks like when he is trying to throw a croquet ball at me... yeah.  But then later on he looked like this:

 So it's hard to not just love him to pieces all the time anyway.  He is really into the tantrum faze though.  If I give him a chip instead of him being able to pull it out of the bag himself it's all over.  But then other times he will let me help him do things.  You just never know!

 My mom gained a new appreciation for me in June. She helped me a TON!  She came to visit us for a few days then a few days after that we headed for her house and she came back with us to my house. It was a much needed help for me who some days feels like I'm going crazy.

 My grandma Jenkins was trying to teach Blake how to play croquet.  He now wants his own set.  He doesn't like to play the way you are supposed to though.

 Blake pulling the Grandpa Jenkins face! We all did this face as kids. 

I love my Grandpa.  He had a stroke two weeks before Stockton was born.  Stock's middle name is Lowell after him and it broke my heart when it looked like he wasn't going to be able to see Stockton born.  It's a miracle that he is doing this well.  I'm so grateful he is still around!

 My sweet Grandma is such a big help to me.  She has helped me babysit my kids a lot over the years. When I was in college she let me do my laundry at her house and always sent me back to my apartment with a bag full of food. She has always taken such good care of me!  She is always trying to help anyone she can.  I hope I can be like her.
