Two Grand-Babies

Yesterday I had the pleasure of watching both grand-babies...I have Colton while Tammy and Kyle are on their honeymoon and Hayden I had for several hours while Jessy had doctors appointments.

It's been while since I've had 2 to watch and I must say it could be a little difficult. Colton was a little jealous I think...so trying to get him to behave around Hayden while not making him think I was playing favorites was a chore...at least for me....but we managed.

It was nice during nap time...we all fell asleep on the couch...Hayden in one arm and Colton beside the other.

It was funny....when Colton and I sit on the couch together he sits on my right side...earlier I had put Hayden in that arm to feed her...Colton saw and came over and and started pulling on me saying...Colton, couch...Colton, couch...he was trying to tell me that was his spot...when i moved Hayden to the other arm he climbed in his spot and said thank you. Now that's precious. Ha!

Tomorrow I think Colton and I will venture out...if the weather holds true for a nice day I think we'll make a trip to the zoo and see some animals.

Take care!

The Wedding

Mr. and Mrs. Kyle Sheard

January 3, 2009

The wedding was beautiful and so was our bride. She never looked more beautiful or happy. I think everything went according to plan...or almost everything but if it didn't only those behind the scenes know about it.

This was the handsome Ring Bearer....Colton...the son of the bride and groom and of course my most beloved grandson. He did well considering he's only 2....he helped add to the memories.

The bride and groom are on their way to Jamaica courtesy of Carnival Cruise line...they'll also make a stop in The Caymans and Cozumel. They are on a week long cruise.

I have Colton until Friday and then his other grandma will have him until Sunday when our happy couple return.

For those of you that joined us this past Saturday to help in the celebration I thank you for coming out and sharing in our most happy celebration.

Happy New Year!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

It's a time reflect on the past year and to look forward to the new.

I thank all of you that have visited my blog. It's been fun. I've enjoyed keeping you up on what's going on with me and the family...I hope you've enjoyed reading about it. Thank you for letting me share.

As this new year approaches I plan to have more updates on the beach house and I plan on spending more time there as well...telling you about Tammy's wedding (which happens in 3 days)...my trip to San Francisco in February...the arrival of 2 more grand-babies this summer ...what's new with Colton and Hayden and the rest of the family...so keep posted.

Take care and God bless....Robin

Christmas Gone...Wedding On

Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas. We had a good time...it was noisy but it was good. Hayden slept most of the time and most of that time was on me...I didn't mind. Colton enjoyed opening a present and then running off to open another. I think he liked the novelty candy/toy that was in his stocking the most. You pressed a button and it had like a fan that turned and blowed air and lights came on.

The more people you get in the house, especially opening presents there will be a little chaos but was still an enjoyable time. Present opening seemed like it took forever though. The kids were over for several hours. It's amazing that when they leave you can tell exactly how noisy it was because everything now is so quite.

Before Colton got ready to go we were taking pictures and he finally decided he was say cheese for a picture and actually pose. Here is the result of that cheese picture with both of my beautiful grandchildren below. I wonder how next years pose will be with 4 grandchildren? I can hardley wait.

Now that Christmas is over we can put ALL of our attention and focus on Tammy's wedding...after all it's only 9 days away and still it seems like so much to do.

Today the girls have their last dress fitting and should still be interesting since 2 are pregnant and one just had her baby a month ago.

Hopefully it all come together ....there really isn't any choice.

I'm hoping to post again before the wedding but if not I will do so afterwards...hopefully...I will have Colton that Sunday evening after the wedding until Friday evening.

Have a Wonderful New Year!

Robin

Merry Christmas!

From Our House To Yours!

And a Happy and Safe New Year Too!

Sleep Over

Little Miss Hayden came over Saturday night to spend the night with her Grams. We had the most wonderful time....BUT....she definitely has her morning and night hours turned around.

This is her at 2 in the morning all wide awake and big eyed.

She had been up from 10:30 that evening until 4 in the morning...she didn't want to sleep...she wanted to eat or look around...so we did as she pleased as much as I tried to get her to sleep... she is the Princess so she got her royal way.

She eats a lot...I guess she's trying to make up for how small she was at birth....she surely is growing.

All I know is that she's a sweetie pie.

Oh...and I did tell her mom and dad that she needs to sleep a little better through the night before she can have another Gram and Hayden sleep over. Not sure if that will hold true or not but we'll see.

The Hussle and Bussle of the Holidays

Hoping that your done with your holiday shopping or soon will be...I thought I was done or really close to it when I decided to sit down and wrap all I had gotten just to discover I was a lot more short than I had thought...how could I of over looked on of my children....I just couldn't understand it.

Usually by this time I'm all done with my shopping while those last minute shoppers are out searching for the perfect gift...well....today I spent my afternoon shopping. Now I'm close to being done...one quick run in the morning to the mall and I'm done. I know ...the mall...who wants to go to the mall the Friday before Christmas? I'm hoping to be there when they open, go into the store I need to go into, get what I need and get out before shoppers are searching for a place to park.

So...for those of you who have not yet finished your shopping...HURRY! and for those of you that have I TOAST you...you did good. Tomorrow I plan to be done shopping and the wrapping as well. I have plans for my friend and neighbor to join me on the porch for a holiday drink this weekend...feel free to join us as we unwind and prepare for the holiday.

Happy Holidays!
