Happy Valentine's Day, Everyone!!!

It's been a busy couple of weeks, getting settled back into work and trying to dig out and sort and eliminate more of the boxes stacked and tucked all over the apartment!

Ye Ye joined us on the 9th, flying in from Oregon to join Nai Nai (and especially Kaeli!). Kaeli remembered him and greeted him with a huge smile and pats on his hands and face. She has spent a lot of time in his arms and on his lap since he arrived.

This past weekend we went into Philly and had breakfast with John and Tom and Rita at Reading Terminal Market. Kaeli loved looking at (and waving at!) all the people and all the things to see - fish and kids and lights and all sorts of wonderful things. Then we spent some time at the Italian market - Kaeli enjoyed riding in her hip hammock worn by Mama, and did quite well as long as we kept moving and changing the scenery and looking at new things. Standing still in one place can get boring!

We had lunch at Pat's & Geno's - Nai Nai and Ye Ye had cheesesteaks from Geno's, and Mama and Kaeli shared cheese fries from Pat's. Kaeli is a REAL fan of cheese fries, and probably ate more of them than Mama! We also spent some time at Book Fair, a favorite place of Kaeli's with all sorts of books and toys for kids. She and Ye Ye played with the wonderful train sets while Mama and Nai Nai looked at books.

Ye Ye put together Kaeli's Leapfrog music table, which was a gift from Nancy Dock, and Kaeli has been rocking and rolling ever since. She especially likes hitting all the keys and buttons while giggling and squealing and going in circles sideways as fast as she can around the table, which is quite funny to watch!

This coming week Nai Nai and Ye Ye and Kaeli will continue to enjoy days together while Mama is at work. They hope to visit Longwood Gardens, and will take the QVC tour and have lunch with Mama at work. Ye Ye and Nai Nai head back to Oregon on the 21st, and will be sorely missed!!!
