Life is Good

My life as a grandmother gets better and better as the days go by.I was blessed by these last couple of days. My girls let me take our boys and they spent the night at our home. To some of you it may not seem like a big deal but for me it's paradise. I was blessed with two girls but after them I couldn't have any more children. I always thought it would have been nice to have a boy for Eddy and WOW my prayers were answered......We have two gorgeous little guys.


Since we are here at the church a lot we don't get to see the boys much. I am going to try and have them spend the night at least one night a week, it will give the girls a break and I will be able to have my Gigi fix.
Tuesday night I had Gabriel. Look at his eyes,

he looks like someone who wants to get into everything and is the life of the party(he is).He knows what the word no means but will test you every time just to see how far he can go. He has such a contagious smile and laugh.
This little one is gifted with a great set of lungs and will use them every time you want to put him to bed and he doesn't want to go. Gabriel wants to be a big boy and climb up the stairs, I of course won't let him go by himself so I helped him. After a couple of minutes he wants to go down the stairs. I thought this was cute so I went a long with it until it was maybe the sixth time and I finally had to say no. The great thing about being a grandparent is I don't have to say no, but this time I was worn out and lets face it at 2:00 in the morning my get up and go just got up and went!!!!He wore me out....... I finally got him to sleep and boy was I ready. My wonderful husband let me sleep in and he took him home. I stayed and took a long long nap just to do it again Wednesday evening.


Now look at Elias

when I look at him and when he smiles it just melts my heart. He is layed back and pretty much cool and calm. .Both boys have taken on their daddy's personality. So last night I picked him up after work. After I fed him we went up stairs to play. Elias can't walk yet so at least I didn't have to run after him like I do Gabriel, he crawls pretty fast but I can catch up to him.
When it was bedtime this one was a little easier to put to bed. I don't have a crib so he had to sleep with me. I so enjoyed both nights. It's been a while since I had a baby in the house it felt wonderful..

I know as time goes on we might not always live in the same town for whatever reason so I am cherishing each moment I have with our children. I appreciate the blessings that they are.So for now I am enjoying life as a grandmother!!!!!!
