Weekend in Raleigh

We spent the Weekend in Raleigh watching the Fields while Mike, Maria, Anna and Rex went for an annual get together at the beach with friends.
It was fun to be with the kids and there are always some laughs.

Kate loves gum and I guess Maria rations it pretty closely. Kate knows where it is stored and she said she wanted a big piece which I allowed her to have. Mary Grace goes ballistic saying her mother is going to be so upset. She decided it would be best if she gave Maria a call and give her a heads up that her youngest was going down the tube.

Kate was into talking about her bottom. Mary said to her, “ Kate it is not polite to talk about your bottom.” To which Kate replied “Well, Doctors look and talk about bottoms, so I am just being a Dr.”

It is very hard to win an argument with them.

The kids spent an afternoon doing braided bracelets which Riley thought would be great to sell at school for $1 to $10. All you cousins should be ready for a sales pitch the next time you run into her.

We will go back in March when Sarah, John and Evelyn will be visiting and then we get to go to NYC in April to do a weekend babysitting gig for Evelyn.
