A beautiful baby girl

All in the world is good. My heart is full and I am so happy. We have a wonderful granddaughter. She weighed in at 7 lb.s 15 oz. She is 23 2/3 inches long. Her hair is dark brown and she has the bluest of eyes. She came into this world at on 5/27/08 around 3:40 pm. I know this may sound a little partical but she is a beautiful little girl. Me and David have our 2 year old grandson with us. This is the first trip without his sister or his parents. He is doing really good. Noah and his Papa are having a great time with each other. I can't help but laugh seeing them in the floor playing with cars, walking in the yead and Noah wiggling his toes in the dirt, watching his share his cookies with Papa and the dogs, especially Lil Bit. Lil bit is his friend. Noah will be going home Friday. And we are going to miss him so much. We are getting David's 2 nephew's Saturday for 2 weeks and then my granddaughter, Skylar will be coming in Monday to spend a few days with us. We are so excited to have all the kids coming in. I know that alot has been going on in my life with my Momma and my BIL, but it is times like this that makes the bad seem good. Please continue to say a prayer for Momma and Burkett. He seems to getting worse since stopping the Chemo. Momma is doing much better and is home. I have not a clue on why she is retaining water but she has an appointment to see the doctor next week and I will discussing this with her. I will post pictures of Bethany soon. I will see her again Friday when I take my "NONO" home. I must go for now, Noah is sharing his animal cookies with Nana now. I hope that everyone has a good weekend. peace, love and happiness....

Hospital again.....

Momma is in hospital again. She is retaining water and swelling like a balloon. Her feet and legs were awful and looked like they were ready to pop. She has been sleeping all week and I should have picked up on it...It has been a very long week.... I found out that my BIL is no longer able to take Chemo treatments any more. The doctors are saying that it is causing him to have some major heart troubles. He will finish his radiation on his lungs and then he will start with radiation on his brain. The doctors are hoping by then he will be able to start Chemo again. His family physican is trying to adjust his meds weekly. His hair is growing back in sprigs and spots. He laughs about it and I hide the tears. My sister, God bless her soul, is trying really hard to deal with all. Job, doctors appts., everyday life...and she is a ball of nerves. For the good news, my DIL is going in the hospital on Tuesday to give birth to our new granddaughter...Ms. Bethany. I will be there for this milestone and to get pictures of her. When I get home, hopefully I will get the chance to post some photos of the new baby. We will be traveling to Atlanta to get my DH nephews for 2 weeks. We are so excited to have them for a few weeks. They are wonderful boys. I hope that all my online blogger friends have a wonderful and safe Memorial Day and great week....peace, love and happiness...

It has been awhile since I have posted. Alot is going on but it is going to be okay. I have HOPE! Just wanted to check in and tell everyone hey and I hope that everyone has a wonderful Memorial Day! Take care...peace, love and happiness...

Grandbabies in for the weekend

The grandbabies were here for the weekend. We had a wonderful time. We grilled at our home Saturday afternoon and then we were at Momma and Daddy's Sunday for a family dinner, which was so much fun. We eat, I washed dinner dishes (there were not to many) and then gathered in the den and watched family movies when we were young adults. And then movies of when I children were celebrating Chirstmas many years ago at out parents house. Some moments were light hearted and others that just tugged at your heart. These are the movies in which Momma was doing great. Walking, talking with great sense..and now she is confined to a wheelchair. And we are very lucky that she knows us on a day to day basis, The house was full of ooo's and aww's while watching these. And a few tears. My boys were so young and now they have babies...lol. It was so much fun watching the grands run around and play. Haley was on her bike the time that they got here. And she rode it all weekend long. Noah played with his "CARS' cars that he got from his Granny Thompson. I have pics that I will post later when I get a chance. I have one that is so good of my daughter in law and Haley.

News on BIL- he was in hospital for 2 days battling diabetes. Yes, he has diabetes. And was put in because the doctors could not get his sugar to go down. He has lost all of his hair and he is having a rough time eating. He has been nauseous and is taking meds for that at the moment. He is no having Radiation -5 times a week and Chemo- 3 days a week and going on Friday to take a Chemo shot. Then he is going to see his family physican on Saturday. Alot of doctors' appointments in one week.

Mom is having a good well. The knot on her neck is not giving he as much pain as it has been in the past few weeks. I hope that everyone has a great week. Take care...peace, love and happiness...
