This is our happy little Jacob at 17 months, Andrew's little boy. He is such a sweet, sweet little boy. We adore him. His bubbly little personality is so contagious. It's no wonder his sister, Tristyn. 3, adores him also.

This is our precious Bradley shown eating his first birthday cake. Yum, yum....his mommy makes great cake. Check out those big brown eyes just like Mommy's. (Amy) He makes us all smile with his ways of getting right in your heart. I had the chance to keep Bradley yesterday. What fun! At 18 months, he is full of playful creativity. I thoroughly enjoyed being with him during the day. Big sister Natalie was in kindergarten! But I also had the chance to go with her mommy to pick her up from school, meet her teacher, see her classroom, her work, desk, locker, the whole works. What fun it was!

Hey, everyone!

It's already autumn........and I haven't been on here since spring....where did summer go? Wow, time is really getting away from me. I'm so into grandmothering, volunteering, piano teaching, and occasionally housework that I wonder where the days go!

Things are going well here for the most part. Hubby has retired again, decided he needed some time off the clock for awhile...and I 100% agree. He is 62...he deserves more leisure without the pressures. Don't you think? Now, I'll get to make my lists for his "honey-do" jobs that have been on hold. You know he's looking forward to that; I know I am. :)

I'm sending along some adorable photos of my beautiful Tristyn and Natlie.
