Timmy Time!

Granny and I caught Timothy in a very happy mood today and got some fun photos. If you are tired of looking at pictures of our baby, click to another site now!!!

Overdue...

WOW... sorry! I didn't realize I had not posted in over a month! Guess I posted on Facebook and forgot this blog. Oh, well... fall has arrived on the bluff, and Timothy is growing like a weed. He now squeals and is very near having two lower teeth! He eats baby food and is still a very happy baby most of the time. We love having him with us on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons while his mom goes to ASU.

Writing and keeping up with Timothy, blogs, Mam-ma Polly, and daily life have kept me busy. We have had more than our share of rain and are now ready for a beautiful fall and some time on the back porch!

The first pictures were taken on October 13th. My mom - Timothy's great-granny - put him in the little oak rocker that was mine as a child. He wasn't quite sure what to think! The pictures of Timothy in the red shirt were taken September 24th. Greg's mother was here, and we made some pictures of her with the baby. The last two are OUR babies... Mabel and Lucy. They love the fall decorations and amuse themselves occasionally (or get our attention) by digging in the leaves!

Timothy's First Overnight on the Bluff!

Timmy spent the night with us last night. Mam-ma Polly has been diagnosed with the shingles... see my posts at The Deli for details. Yesterday morning, Jasmine awoke dizzy and thinks she might even have passed out briefly. Diagnosis... inner ear infection. So Timothy was dropped at our house about 7:30 a.m., on the way to the ER with Jasmine. He stayed until noon today. We had a great time. He sat in his high chair and played with some toys, and he also discovered himself in the mirrors. Probably his favorite thing was watching TV with Uncle Greg... they watched NFL and college football, NASCAR qualifying, and CNBC! Timothy will be back on Tuesday afternoon while his mom goes to algebra class... we'll be ready!

Lucky on Labor Day!

This morning I went out to clean my front porch. I have a metal bench there with an afghan and a large "quilted" pillow. When I picked up the pillow, it "stuck" to the afghan briefly, and when it pulled away, it opened this nest of bees/hornets/something buzzing! I ran inside and managed to avoid being stung. The nest is not as puffy in these photos because Greg had already sprayed it with something. I felt very lucky that neither of us got stung... Greg had just been sweeping in that corner a little earlier! Guess we won't be keeping an afghan/pillow on the porch again!

Happy 19th Birthday, Jasmine!

Friday was Jasmine's 19th birthday. We celebrated with lunch at Michael's. Greg and I met Mom, Lee, Mam-ma Polly, Suzanne, Mike, Jasmine and Timmy there. We had a good time and got some great pics!
