Well it's been a while since I've posted anything new. There are many reasons why; being lazy, being busy, and mostly because I just thought the twins' pictures were so cute I wanted to leave them up. We spent a week in Kuaui with Cari, Juan and Scarlett. That was a lot of fun. Don and I have never been on that island and it is beautiful. Rains a lot but that's why it's so pretty. Cari had her 28th birthday while we were gone, Don had his 61st, and my mom had her 89th. Last Saturday the kids and grandkids, me along with my two sisters met over at my neice's house and had a great carrot cake that Linda baked. Then Linda and Terri and baby Will, my two sisters Diane and Peggy, and my cousin Sandy went with my mom to her church to hear her favorite baritone. Our workers have left for preps, can't believe convention is coming up so fast.

Luke and Mia

Allysa took some cuuuuuute pictures of the twins. They are just so precious. Luke is now 6.9lbs and Mia is 7.2. Officially newborns as their due date was 3/7. They are doing really really well and Luke seems to be back to his cheerful (with a little side of "edgy") self. When I was holding him today, it just took me back 29 years ago to when Jim was a newborn. They look so much alike. I babysat for Shana today while she had a Dr.'s apt. and brought Scarlett with me so the two could play. Chloe is such a good natured little girl. She has figured out how to drag her chair over to the counter, grab a cup, then quickly down the chair to the refrig to push the water button in the door. With no water spilled UNTILL the cup goes up to her mouth. We had to find something else to do, quickly. Her and Scarlett have so much fun together, they just giggle all the time. Having grandchildren is just the best!!!!!

Well it's been a pretty eventful week. Last saturday, Jim called to say that Luke was acting funny so we went over to babysit Mia while they took him in to the hospital.Turns out he has acid reflux that can go into apnea. They changed his formula to partially digested milk and put him on antacids. 80% improvement in a week. He was in the hospital for the weekend and came home on Monday. Alyssa's mom and I took turns last week sitting with alyssa until she felt she had it all under control. She is an absolutely amazing monther. Thursday we had a birthday party for Shana as she turned 30. Saturday we had Virginia Richmond's 90th birthday party. There were abut 250 people there. That was very nice.

Don and I and Juan, Cari, and Scarlett are headingfor Kuai next Sat. one whole week of sun, food, reading those books that there are never time for. I would like to say that they are some kinda of self-help like Dr. Laura's :The Feeding and Keeping of Husbands, but my 60th roots won't allow me to even buy it. I' m going to read Stephen King's new novel, and a great book called "gods in Alabama' bye someone. II'm too lazy to get up and get it. I'm tired, going to bed. Goodnight all1!
