An exciting day at Grammy's and Grandpa's











Today was Ariana's first time eating cereal! It's hard to believe the little girlie is already big enough for that- but she is! After the first few bites, she definitely got the hang of things. Grammy Jill was impressed at how well she did and that we actually got most of the cereal in her and not on her bib and clothes! By the end she was already opening her mouth for the spoon...Mommy is hoping that this will keep her little, ravenous girl happy a little longer than just a bottle does!

G & Z











Zane








Gavin









My Mr Z and G





just relaxin'






















Well, let's see,what's life like with two sweet as sugar baby boys?? Busy,yep.definitely busy. Dan & I have each had a baby in our arms & joke "Who knew we'd "have twins" at our age?"!!! They are precious!! Gavin was smiling' at his Mommy this morning & a grinning & talking to his Grandpa this evening! We simply melt with all this baby love going on!!
In the midst of Babyland,we are trying to fit in Christmas.There will be no cards this year & little else!!! I'm late for my usual schedule of doing things.Christmas shopping,wrapping,decorating....really, it's going to be a simple season.I got some wrapping done yesterday...I stayed up til' 2 AM. Evening was the only time I had to get stuff done!!! And, I loved it!! I'm having so much fun wrapping presents for my loved one's.Maybe I can post a pic soon! I still have shopping to do,haven't got Trav's pkg. mailed,but it'll all come together.
Dear Dan put up the tree today,maybe lights tomorrow!!! Ashley & I ran errands & Christmas shopped. While we were out,we met up with Summer,so another impromptu "girl party" commenced!!
My friend, Kathleen brought a delicious meal over for us,with dessert!! It was so nice not to have to even think about supper!!!
Thank- you, Lord for the friends & family who bless & brighten my day. Open my eyes to see ways to bless those around me, too!

Ariana- Four Months Already











Hey...it's Summer again.... I took some pictures of the little girlie this morning, that I figured I would share with you all. I woke up and the lighting was absolutely perfect in my bedroom, so I couldn't resist! Hurray for photography done in your pj's! I can't believe she is already four months old- time has flown by so quickly... She's doing lots of new things- rolling over from her back to her tummy, trying to sit and almost able to do it sometimes with a little support, still loves the sound of her voice...ALOT...discovering her tootsie toes, grasping and playing with toys...Having big conversations with Grandpa Dan...It's so much fun! She also met her two little cousins and loves to watch them!!
Things are pretty busy over at mom and dad's place right now...as I'm sure you can all imagine! Caring for two baby's is...well... pretty much all they do! The big accomplishment of the day being getting a shower or making dinner in between feedings, diaper changes, calming fussy babies... More or less, you run from the time they get up until...well...hopefully, they go to bed! Poor Ashley doesn't get much sleep! But we all know its worth it and hopefully, soon they'll settle into more of a regular schedule that includes sleeping long stretches through the night! Already in the one week that they have been here, I can see changes in them. How quickly they grow! I am hoping to do a photo shoot of Ashley and the boys soon- we'll be sure to post pictures for you all to see!
Hope you enjoy the pictures!
All our love, Summer and Ariana
