Flashback Friday: Grandma Edition

My mom came out to visit earlier in the month. We had a lot of fun going to parks, cooking, eating (I especially enjoyed the eating), playing with Eden, and just generally hanging out. Despite bringing my camera with me everywhere (and dropping it on concrete at least twice), I only took photos on the last morning she was here. Of course. A few of those are posted below.

But first. In honor of Flashback Friday I present photos from the trip my mom made out here a few days after Eden was born in August 2008. (Although who that strange baby is on her lap, I cannot say. That cannot possibly be my child who only yesterday pushed a giant plastic car - containing a preschooler - around the park.)

My mom bought this pink dress for her granddaughter while I was still in high school. This woman plans ahead.

On the left here we have, Exhibit A: A woman who has clearly gone without sleep for 24 hours multiple times in the most recent week. Also a woman who will wear nothing but nursing tanks and sweat pants for the rest of the month.

And below we have, Exhibit B: Why grandmas are the bestest.


Thanks for being the bestest, Mom. We love and miss you!
