grandparents

Last week Kevin's parents came out from Minnesota to meet their newest granddaughter.  It was nice to have them here.  And it was REALLY nice to let them get up with Evelyn in the middle of the night!  We were blessed by their generosity and helpfulness.

With all four grandparents - this won't happen too often!

With Mama!

We are slowly trying to go back to normal life now.  Evelyn was held way too much while her grandparents were here and rarely put in her crib, even during the night.  So now we have a very spoiled little girl who refuses to sleep unless she's being held, and cries and whines the whole time.  Yesterday she only slept about 30 minutes between 5 AM and 5 PM... ca-razy!  So we are attempting to get back on a schedule and re-learn crib sleeping.  Super fun process! 

It really was good to have the elder Dahls here, especially since we probably won't make it to Minnesota until Christmas.  So now Nana has about a million photographs to hold her over until then.
