The Jim's
Jim and Alyssa with Mia and Luke. The babies are about 8-1/2 lbs now. Defintely getting their own look. They are just so cute. I babysat for a couple of hours today so Alyssa could get a little shopping done and they were so good. I fed Luke, burped him, put him in his little chair, then fed Mia, burped her, put her in her little chair, picked up Luke, rocked him to sleep, put him down and picked up Mia, rocked her until her mommy came home. When you talk to them now, they will stop their moving and look at you and smile. It is just so sweet. Luke is trying to laugh now. He is going to be a lot like his daddy, just hyper and always on the move. Mia is more even natured, like her mommy. Joe, Shana, Chloe and Sage went to Seattle this past week with a layover in Bend, Oregon to see Shana's folks. Cari and Juan have been moving and keeping Scarlett with them for the little bits, so I haven't seen my big girls for a week. It was nice playing with the little guys. I need my "nana" fix.

Ducks again
The ducks are back and there are 9 of them this time. I'm going to do my best (and hopefully Roxie can help non-violently) to keep them from nesting in the rocks by the pool again this year. I'm just not up for the stress of worrying about little ducklings again, not using the pool for fear of scaring mama off her nest, fighting the urge to sit outside at night with don's rifle to shoot off any hawks or owls looking for duck eggs (I would probably just hit myself as I have never shot a gun in my life.)

It wouldn't be fair to all my grandkids if I didn't include my granddogs. Actually Eddie was my dog that we had to put to sleep at 17 two years ago. I still grieve! What a big baby. But he has a special place on my bookcase. Sage belongs to Joe and Shana and Chloe and I just love him so much. What a GREAT dog. Loves people and is just happy being around them. They never should have got him fixed as he has some great DNA going. He gets to come and visit nana when his family goes out of town. The next picture is Roxie. She is Jim and Alyssa's and Luke and Mia's dog. She is having an extended stay at Nana's as her little half siblings are a little too small and she thinks she is a total lap dog. Weighs about 75 pounds. I am very attached to her also. Well this is pretty much my family. Sage
