Loving Peni

Beignet has a gramma substitute in the form of Auntie Shannon's mother, Peni, who comes to town from time to time. The drippy sweet relationship began when Peni handed Baby B a balloon at Chik Fil A. The bond strengthened when B decided to see Peni's reaction to a bedtime fit. Word is she screamed for a good long while...long enough for Peni to decide to climb up to the top bunk to help Beignet fall asleep.

When Peni comes to town, the world stops. Today, Baby B was so excited to see Peni and show her her new lunchbox. On the way to go see Peni and friends, Beignet and Ladybug were discussing whose lap they would sit in. "I'm getting Peni's lap. Remember she is so nice to me?" says B. (Ladybug, by the way, is content with any lap.)

And so that was our evening, pizza on the floor of Susan's new condo and girls in various laps. I think Peni's was full more often than not. As we left the condo, hugs and kisses being thrown left, right and center, B made her announcement that she has only said to one other person in 4 months: LOVE YA, PENI!! And oh, how she does!
