Tuesdays are Special

Fortunately, my summer semester class schedule allows me to spend Tuesdays with "my guys." This means special "one-on-one" time with Mason and Lincoln.

Lincoln is just a little over two months old (born March 11) and is already so alert - smiling and trying so hard to make sounds back to you when you talk to him

Today, he slept most of the day, but when he was awake, he was a wonderful baby - playing, smiling, and loves to be sung to.

Mason had a day of cleaning his room (it was truly a sight to behold!) and then playing with remote control cars. He is so delightful - fun to talk to and play with. He loves his little brother but says, "Omi, I just can't stand the noise he makes."

I'm looking forward to having at least one day a week devoted to my beautiful grandsons this semester. Wonder how many days I can work out next semester????

Lincoln is Here

Our long-awaited Lincoln Gage Westcott is here!! Born on Thursday, March 11th, he weighed in at 9 lbs. 12 oz. and is quite the handsome young man. Lisa, Michael, Mason and baby Lincoln are doing well.

Twas the Night Before Christmas

It must be Christmas Eve. Two little munchkins got new pj's and are sitting under the Christmas Tree.

Happy Birthday Ellie!

Early this morning, the girls congregated in Omi's apartment to begin celebrating Ellie's 2nd Birthday! Ellie unwrapped one of her presents and the girls helped Mommy to assemble it. Thanks Mommy!!!

Later today, we will be traveling to The Billy Graham Library, where the girls will sleigh ride, watch the live nativity, hear the Christmas Carolers, and see all of the beautiful decorations before we have dinner at Ellie's choice of restaurants. It will probably be ChuckeeCheese - LOL!

Happy Birthday Ellie!!

SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope this is the beginning of a snow-filled Winter for North Carolina. We haven't had snow like this in a really long time. Brienna and Ellie just couldn't be contained last night, so we got out long after dark and while it was still falling.

We woke up this morning to about 12 inches of the beautiful stuff!! They've made great plans for the day - sledding, snow cream, building a gingerbread train, and going to the library. Going to the library??? Where did that come from?? I think we'll just stay put and enjoy the snow.
