Here's what's kept me so busy lately
Summer is now nearly 6 months old and rolls to get where she wants to go and is learning to sit up quite well.
summersit 5 months.jpg Devan was born Jan 12, and is a tiny little guy. He was 4 lbs 15 oz at birth and is already up just over 6 lbs now. Joel and Shannon are delighted with him and have been staying here since he came home from the hospital. Devan Jan 23.jpg So I've been a full time grandma and am getting my quota of cuddling now while I have the chance. How much more blessed can a grandma be than to have 2 happy, healthy babies to cuddle?

They are both just precious! It's great that they're so close in age. I bet they'll be best friends growing up!

your g-babies are beautiful, they can keep you very busy but enjoy it while you can. I have 6 g-kids (3-15 yrs old) they grow up much to quick.

Tink, your grandchildren are so cute!!! I can just picture Summer kicking and smiling at you when you go to pick her up!!! She has such an adorable smile and a twinkle in her eyes!! Too cute!!!
And you have another little guy to love on!! How special!!! It sounds like he started a little small but is catching up in a hurry!! Get all the cuddles in while you can. You and I both know how quickly they grow up and grow out of that cuddliness!!! Thanks so much for the pictures!!! And it's so good to hear from you!! I figured that you were busy with dogs. I didn't think about babies!! This is a poem that I remember from when my kids were little: Cleaning and scrubbing can wait 'til tomorrow, For babies grow up I've learned to my sorrow, So settle down cobwebs, dust go to sleep. I'm rocking my baby and babies don't keep.

Thanks all
Joel and Shannon decided to go home tonight for the first time since Devan was born. Katie and Summer are staying over at a friends, and will be going back home tomorrow as well. So it looks like I will have the house to myself again soon. I've really enjoyed the little ones, so am pleased to be able to be such an active part of their lives.

Oh Tink,
They are so beautiful! Cuddling two babies is heaven. It's so good you had them at the house. Now they're going home, and you can relax a bit. How are the dogs?
