Andrew's week with G&G Schnitzler

Our weekend up north concluded with us leaving Andrew behind for a stay with Grandma and Grandpa Schnitzler. Their first day of activities involved a trip to Menards, where apparently Andrew found showers, tubs, and much more of interest! It didn't hurt that he got to have Wendy's for lunch, and play games at Happy Joe's when they went for dinner.

Grandma put in quite a bit of play time with Andrew throughout the week. Grandpa was also included in a few games of Hide and Seek, or mostly wait for Andrew to jump out of a hiding spot. They took him to a basketball game, where he reportedly mooched popcorn off of multiple people. His near escape out the front door in his jammies was entertaining to onlookers.

Andrew convinced Grandma and Grandpa to let him stay up until they went to bed. (We're still trying to reverse the effects of this little spoiling!)

They had an extra adventure in the middle of the night on Tuesday evening. G&G's carbon monoxide detector went off. Andrew slept through moving to the car, the fire department being called, a drive across town and then waking up at Aunt Karen's house. He played with numerous different things at her house while they waited for clearance that they could return to G&G's.

Mommy made her way back to G&G's house in a snowstorm on Friday. Andrew was excited to go to a party on Saturday. Mommy's godparents were celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary. Andrew played with several other kids in attendance, interacted with several extended family members (he thought uncle Warren was kind of funny!) and even gave hugs to Mommy's godparents. It was very special for Andrew and Mommy to be at this celebration!

Jeremiah and Daddy played games and had some special time together. Andrew and Mommy returned on Saturday evening and we enjoyed all being back together for the rest of the weekend!
