Hey, ya'll,
Two weeks ago I got to spend some time with Rachel and Owen while Matt was at a conference. I usually get up earlier than Rachel (let's face it...the WORLD gets up earlier than Rachel) so I was going to take the baby and have some 'Grammie time'. Here's how the first 5 minutes went.
He walked to the tv cabinet and removed the tassles and threw them on the floor. I picked them up. He walked to the telephone and made several long distance calls. I hung it up. He walked to the fireplace and pushed the grate in so that it nearly fell on him. I replaced it. He grabbed the poker and tried to run with it. I replaced it. He got caught up in the curtains and I took a deep breath. He stopped to look out the window and identify everything in the back yard. I praised his every utterance. He ran to his high chair and indicated that he was hungry. No kidding! He ate a scrambled egg, a toaster waffle (held like toast), a cut up clementine orange, some banana and a glass of milk. Then down for more. Whoo! And I was there for 5 days. The only thing that slows him down is Sesame Street (Meh-Mo!) and the shots that he got on Monday.
Such fun. I wish you all so much joy.
Come meet this little bundle and introduce your new ones at the reunion at my house. Sterilized surfaces, hand sanitizer and masks available if needed. just kidding!
Love,
Candy

Well, enjoy it while it lasts! One day he will be a teenager, or even a pre-teen and will have a life!! I'm hoping Kaylee and Marisa will come to the reunion, but I'm quite sure it will depend on whether or not they get a better offer!! Love and Joy!!!!

Suzy - isn't that the truth?! Even with our own - hahaha! I keep telling Amanda to get all the kisses and hugging in on Brady that she can right now because of the tendency those little boys have of turning a cold shoulder to mom's approaches when they get a little older.
Candy - great pictures!! Glad you got to have some time with Owen. Rest up now.
