Best friends come to visit

This last week my best friend and her son came to visit from Ohio. The weather the last week has also been in the mid 90's--HOT!! So thoughts of trips to the zoo and parks were out. We did spend a lot of time just enjoying each other's company and letting the kids play. Airen loves baby B and is going to be very upset when he gets home from school today and they are gone. Auntie was wonderful with Airen. He listened to her and worked on legos with her with no issues. Of course it helps that auntie works with special needs children. Boy do I wish she were closer. Some days just having an extra set of hands around to help with Airen and Mara is what I need. We took the babies to the playground one day. Baby B found his shadow and was crawling after it, cutest thing ever!!! We also went to the small farm to check out some pumpkins. Baby B is always so smily and so cute. Last night we decided to put all three kids into the tub!!! What fun they had together and surprisingly my bathroom wasn't flooded. I am going to be very sad to see my best friend leave today. We don't see each other that often but we sure talk on the phone many times a day. Just knowing that she understands the successes and challenges we face with Airen means the world to us.
