Two Weeks with Grandma

Prior to Christmas...

     Traveling is not so easy when you are still getting used to a 1 month old baby's eating schedule who is literally unable to travel since she still has no official passport country (another post to come about this soon). Therefore, we were super grateful that Dave's mom came to visit for two weeks to help us take care of her first granddaughter. :) Normally, family visits are filled with trips to the desert or to Marrakech. This time, we stayed home in Dar Bouazza (primarily) and enjoyed the little things:

Grandma gave Aliyah her first bath
Aliyah had her first photo shoot... for FREE!
We took a lot of walks
Grandma finished Aliyah's Christmas stocking in time for the tailor to sew it together
We enjoyed a big couscous dinner
We laughed at Aliyah's preferred sleeping position
We took a day trip to the haboose/camel market
Grandma gave Aliyah one last bottle before flying away...

We miss you Grandma!

-Dave, Nicole, & Aliyah
