My Sweet Babies!

Oh my little precious grandchildren!!!
I have some catching up to do.
The past few weeks, Poppy and I have had several occassions to spend time with Lawson, Taylor, Britain and Emma Grace. We absolutely cherish these times.

* Lawson was in the first grade play at his school - The Princess and the Frog. It was oh so cute! Lawson was a knight - he is going to be famous some day. Well, actually, he is already famous at this house.

* Lawson and Britain stayed two nights with Poppy and Nene during the week. I got to wake them up each morning and love on them first thing. It is an awesome feeling when they open their eyes and realize where they are. Their little faces break into a HUGE smile - then little arms reach for my neck and the best words come from their sweet mouths - "NENE!!!!" Awww... they are as happy to be with me as I am with them. Great feeling!

* I fixed Britain's hair for school. That is a MAJOR accomplishment for me. Remember I never had little girls. Usually when I do Brit's hair it only stays in for about an hour - not good. BUT - I am getting better. Brit told me that her hair stayed in all day and her bow didn't even come out one single time! That is probably one of the first things she shared with me when I picked her up after playschool. She knew that would make me smile.

* Taylor had a birthday and a sweet little birthday dinner celebration with his family. He is FIVE years old! Doesn't seem possible! Seems like just last month that Manna and I were standing in the hallway with our ears pressed up against the delivery room door waiting for his arrival. We couldn't take the pressure - when we heard him cry for the first time, we opened the door just a crack and looked inside to see our new grandson! He was and is beautiful!

* Nene's babies LOVE to create artwork! They are all so creative. I just pull out a hodge-podge of paint, yarn, furry, sparkly things, crayons and glue and they make awesome memories.

OK - that is a very brief over view.
Here are some pictures - ENJOY!!!!! I know I did.

  2. Good job Nene! I am impressed at your improving ability to do Miss Brit's hair! I still can't manage to get her clips or bows to stay in for more than 20 min! I am going to need a lot more practice before Lila gets here!
