Hi Nanny and Poppy!

Hooray! Nanny and Poppy were finally able to make it down to meet Allison. I can't tell you how happy I was to see reinforcements arrive! Allison is getting better and better with her sleeping. Last night she slept 5 hours straight, nursed for an hour and then slept for another 2! I got a total of 7 hours of sleep last night!

But that wasn't the case until very recently and I was getting very tired not sleeping at night, not being able to take a nap and not having much help!

Unfortunately, for everybody, I have to cut their time with the kids short and make an unplanned trip to Tennessee. My grandmother is in very poor health and this is probably my last opportunity to see her. So tomorrow morning, bright and early, I'm loading both kids into the car and driving the (normally) 8 hour trip to visit her. Dave will stay here because he really can't get away from work right now, but my brother Kent and his fiance Sarah have generously allowed us to travel with them so I'll have some help. I wonder if they know what they've gotten themselves into?!?!

I won't have time to post while I'm away so I'll have to fill you in on how the trip goes when I get back on Sunday. Until then, here are some pictures of Nanny and Poppy's time with the kiddos!
