Grandma in town

The weekend after Easter Grandma Jackie came in town to spend some time with Preston before he has a new little sister!  We went to the airport on Friday evening to pick her up and Preston was so excited to sit on a bench while we were waiting that he tripped and ran his eye right into the edge of the bench.  OUCH!   He cried so hard for a while, it was very heartbreaking and I thought his head was indented when he first did it.  When Grandma came out to where we were, about a minute after he fell, he let her hold him and she enjoyed the cuddling.  We stopped and got some ice at the McCalisters right there, but he wasn't a huge fan of putting it on his eye.  Preston's eye swelled a lot right away and the next morning he was barley able to open it.  Oh I hated it!  It got better pretty quick but it definitely worried me for a day or so.
That Saturday we went to a gymnastics birthday party for Chelsea, little girl of our daycare provider.  Preston loved being there and running around.  Of course he fell twice on the concrete, you know the couple spots where there are no mats!  
Otherwise we just did a lot of playing while Grandma was here.  Sidewalk chalk, walks, playing in the backyard, getting a new bubble mower and watching Elmo were some of the common themes.  Preston got to stay home from daycare Monday and Tuesday with Grandma and just hang out.  Dropping him off at daycare(which he loves) on Wednesday was not the easiest of course!
