Carson The Cookie Monster

Checking to see if Mammy is watching because I am going to the door. First I take a bite of cookie and get it good and mushy and then put it on my hands and oh what a pretty picture.
Now to do a masterpiece finger drawing on the glass. I know Mammy just cleaned the glass because I saw her. She was making it nice and clean for my work of art.


Me, I didn't do that Mammy it was the dogs, I don't have anything on my face!


This was Carson with a teething biscuit. He really likes them but he sure is messy with them.

Carson is a little cutie. He eats and eats and eats. You cannot fill the child up. Last Wed. he had 3 bowls of rice cereal with fruit, 3 large jars of baby food, 4 cookies, 2 small jars of fruit, snacks, juice and he still was hungry. With him walking now he may eat even more. And his naps are really short. They are more like mini naps. He sure does keep me hopping. Dawson does good with his naps. He and Papa Lon take their nap together. A week ago Wed. Papa Lon laid down before Dawson and when I brought Dawson in from playing outside I told him that Papa got in trouble so I sent him to bed. When Dawson got up from his nap he said "I'm a good boy Mammy, I didn't get in trouble like Papa." I just laughed!!!!!

I had my first grandparents day at school




On Friday the 12th I got to go to school to my first grandparents day there. The preschool class is so small that they didn't let us go to the room, but the preschool class performed at the program. I took the day off from work because this was an important thing for me. Papa Lon didn't go because he was embarrassed that he forgot to pick up Dawson the day before at school. Shame on him. This last Thurs. I posted notes and posters all over the house to PICK UP DAWSON at 11:15. He got a kick out of that. Anyway here are a couple of pictures of Dawson with his class singing "On Grandpa's farm" It was really cute!!!!

Playing Catch Up

Seems forever since I have posted anything. Just been too busy with daily life and trying to keep up with work. This job is something else. Oh well at least I have a job.
The count down is on for our anniversary party. Spent 150.00 on meat and extras and still have alcohol and various other things to get. Seems like it went from about 30 people to I don't know how many. At the local restuarant Lon just keeps inviting a few more. So, we will see who shows up. And I have changed dresses again. Think that this is the one. So, girls, just dress the grandsons and granddaughter in jeans and a shirt because I am way way over budget on food and alcohol and I still have Lon's ring to buy. So, jeans work for me!!!!
It is going to be a great party and I am sooooooo looking forward to it.

Like I said work is very busy and very stressful to me. I have started getting there between 6:30 and 6:45 every morning and getting about 15 to 20 min. average lunch and then not getting off till 5 or after. Makes for a very very long day. It really drains me and I don't want to do anything or talk to anyone after work. I have started walking some and that is really helping relieve some of the tension.

Lon's band is crazy. I just don't understand this music thing. The way I see it the band is Lon's job. But, what I don't see is all this work and nothing. Long story but I am trying to understand it all.

Don't call Amy and talk with her like I should. Seems I just can't get it all done. Don't think she would like a 4:30 am call. And like I said after dealing with what I deal with all day long I really don't want to talk on the phone at night. Just want peace and quiet.

Everyone else is okay. All busy with lives, work, school and family.

Babe the beagle is really getting use to the life of an inside dog but she still loves to get out and hunt.

Love to all of you. Mammy
