Ignored but not forgotten

Life has a way of taking you in different directions at times. That's what happened to me plus I was having trouble with uploading photos to my page, so I gave up for awhile. I'll try again to see what I can create!100_0152_2

Here is all our children, spouses & grandsons at Christmas 2007! The most exciting news i we'll be having another grandson with Stacy & Jeremy the middle of May. Of course I was hoping for a girl but it's not to be. Oh well, God knows best!

Here, Oliver is 29 months, Avery is 25 months and Owen is 9 months old. They grow so fast and it's ,ore fun all thr time. Owen is walking everywhere at 10 months and wants to do everything Oliver does.

I love being a grammy!!

Going to the PARK!

Yesterday Natalie & Iwalked to the park across the street where we live.She pushed boys in the big double seat strollerwhich is so nice to have them together. It was a lovely day with a slight breeze. Oliver loves coming to this park and we use to coem alot before he fell. This was the first time Owen ever swang in the swings and he totally loved it! Oliver swang in the swingthen wanted to go down the slide, so of course I had to climb up and set him on the top and mom was standing at the bottom to catch him.He played in the sand for quite awhile pushing it around, filling and emptying the paper cups. We had a good time and then headed back to grammy's for awhile to play. I love being a grammy! But I feel super blessed to live here to be able to enjoy the boys when I can.

I'm finally back!

I love the computer but boy can it drive me crazy when I don't kbow how to do something. I have been frustrated not being able to post updates with my grandsosn and our vacation pictures.

VACATION was in Scottsdale Arizona the first of May. We laid by the pool almost everyday which it my idea of a great get away. We did a day trip to the Grand Canyon & Sedona which was a 12 hour day from hotel. The highlight for me was taking a class at a scrapbook store we found when going out and about to eat. I made a 8 x 10" book from scratch and developed alot of our photos ata bear by Walmart so I could layout my pages. All I had to do when I got home was get my last pitcures, journal on the computer and finish embellishing it. That was the fastest I've ever doen our vaction photos and will try and do that again.

Natalie's family

Natalie's family had some challenges with having Oliver's leg still in a cast going to her brothers wedding. (Oliver was playing soccer with his daddy and missed the ball and fell on the deck breaking his left femur)They got a special wheelchair from Easter Seals to use to help taking him places. Owen & Oliver were adorable in their matching outfitsDscn5247! Oliver got his cast off 5 days after the wedding which

was very exciting for the family even though it was tramatic for Oli.He was so happy to sit up and play with his toys and take a bath! He still can't walk on his leg yet. The doctor said they are their own best therapist pushing themselves to do things.

July 21st

Dscn5258 Our son Jeremy, his fiancee Stacy and little Avery got married in South Lake Tahoe by the lake. It was a beautiful day and with a small family & friends affair. Everyone was  so happy to watch the sweet ceremony and help them celebrate the day!

Owen's Here!

Ok, ok.....I'm bad! When I tell you my last 2 weeks, maybe you'll understand . I had my purse stolen (which had my new Kodal camera and MY LIFE in it), 3 days later my 2003 PT's transmission died at an intersection downtown. Then Natalie goes into labor on March 10th and had 26 hours of labor and ended having a C section. Owen was born @ 12:15 Sunday, March 11th weighing 9.2 lbs and was 19 inches long. His head was 13" and that's why he came out through the tummy!

So I got a new camera and of course it won't unpload on my setup! I'm passed frustrated and want a Kodak! Owen's a sweet baby and I call him sweet cheeks as he had a very full face. He's a great eater and mommy and him are doing fine. Oliver has had a terribler diaper rash and not feeling well Tom took 2 weeks off work to get things organized and help Natalie get feeling better. We have helped alot and and since she can't life Oliver for 6 to 8 weeks, se hoped to get people to come over and help her. I will get some pictures as soon as I can figure out how to load them hear!
