The blessing of grandchildren

LC0035


The man of the hour, our grandson Cole. I took these photos of him over Thanksgiving. He has grown so much in just two short months. Look at his cute little chubby cheeks, so kissable!

Grandpa made him smile tons.

We found the little sweater while Christmas shopping but sent it to him early because they only had 6 month size – yeah, at 2 months he's wearing 6 month clothing! Marissa found the little pants to match the patches on his sleeves and the sweet little argyle socks.

He's dressed and ready to come visit Wisconsin and play in the snow.

Grandpa's always willing to share his Canon 5D.

Too sweet.

And because I haven't shared any photos of Tristan lately and I came across many from October I hadn't yet shared. . . I'll show you how much he loved the leaves.

Pure Joy! (he's 20 months old here)

I even snuck in a photo of mama while she watched Tristan play. My granddaughter is growing. Britney is down to going to the doctor every week. This past week she was dilated to 1cm and 25% effaced. She's not due until Christmas day but we are thinking our Christmas present may come early. Should we do the guess the date game/giveaway?


Grandchildren are the biggest blessing of my life!  Just two and a half years ago I sat here going through chemo wondering if I would ever get to meet my future grandchildren.  Then Britney was diagnosed with PCOS and I wondered if she would ever have children.  I celebrated my 40th birthday right before Tristan was born and now I will be a grandma three times over by my 42nd birthday.  I love the ride of life!  I only wish all of our grandchildren lived in the same town so I could play with them all every week.

My step-daughter takes Labor Day seriously

shaped with love



We got word this morning that Marissa is in labor.  We are excitedly waiting for more news (she's in Missouri), but we should be grandparents once again by the end of the day.  I'll let you know when I know!

I chose the flower photo because I thought the red area kinda looked like a heart.  And babies equal ♥ hearts, right?!

UPDATE: Well, my step-son called, 'Oops, he forget to tell us the hospital sent her back home', Braxton Hicks, so we still get to wait a little while longer. :(  I'm so impatient!  Ever since I had the dream about her being pregnant I have been anxious to meet the little fellow.  Her due date is the 5th, so really any day now, right?
