Nana’s House

The boys LOVE going to Nana’s house. Nana (Sal’s Mother) lives about an hour drive away, and usually comes to visit us (rather than us lugging half the house to see her!). Every so often we make the trip to see Nana and when we do, the boys LOVE it!! They love Nana, her dogs and her piano. Here are a few pictures from our recent trip to Nana’s house.

 

The pictures below are the boys feeding Nana’s dogs. They got handfuls of dry dog food and emptied it out all over the patio, then Nana got out the dustpans and brooms and they helped clean it all up again. All GREAT fun for a 2yr old! – Ethan in red, Ben in blue/grey.

It lives in Nana’s spare room and the boys know where it is and go get it every time we visit.

A few months ago (not long after they turned 2) we had a family party at Nana’s house (with all Sal’s Aunts/Uncles and cousins). As it was just after their birthday party and we had a new jumping castle we took it with us for all the kids to play on. Last week, the day before we went to Nana’s house, we told the boys we were going to Nana’s tomorrow. Ben’s immediate question was if we could take the jumping castle. He obviously associates it with Nana’s house! So we did!

The day had warmed up. Now Ethan’s in the green shirt and Ben’s in the red.tn_IMG_1691 tn_IMG_1693 tn_IMG_1695 tn_IMG_1712 tn_IMG_1724 tn_IMG_1734

A nana's house is always most fun! Looks like a fun day. Wont be long before your boys can clean the house for you, they are great little workers. :)
