So I have no idea how many people actually read this thing. It is funny, I keep hearing of more and more people who do. You must enjoy my niece and nephews as much as I do!!
This past weekend Ryan and I went to Kelly and Erica's to babysit Alyssa (aka A Dawg) and Grayson (aka G Baby). They are so sweet. They had both been sick for a few days and weren't feeling real well. Somehow they managed to keep all bodily fluids inside until their parents got home. We went down Friday night after watching a sorry OSU men's game and stayed the night. We got another hour of sleep that way! It snowed (I know end of March right) Saturday night so Ryan and I decided to go ahead and stay the night again. The snow melted pretty fast the next day.
That is what you get for living in a bipolar state! I would not have it any other way. I love the flat land and being able to see the hills, cattle, ponds, trees, etc. for miles and miles. I love the windy days that blow and mess up your neatly fixed hair. I love that some days you have the heater on going to work in the morning and then have to turn the AC on for the way home. I love how Enid is considered a rural town in the grand scheme of things (Enid is big to me!!). I love living in a town of 800. I love all the pickup trucks and tractors. Mostly, I love the people. Oklahoma people really are friendly. Just leave the state for awhile and you will know what I am talking about.
Below are some recent pictures of... you guessed it... my niece and nephews!!
Below: Alyssa was thinking really hard about a card game. I think this was big fish little fish??
Below: Grayson is WALKING! He is so tiny so it is funny to see him toddling around. He is doing such a good job!
Below: Ryan and Alyssa were playing some elephant game. I'm not sure who had more fun!
Below: G Baby has the cutest little smile. He was so proud sitting on the chair all by himself.
Below: The horse was beating Tad up... seriously that night it was getting the best of him.
Below: Ryan and Alyssa were still playing!
Below: Such a happy little guy. Can you see the little round circle in the middle of his forehead? That is where his Daddy taught him how to stick his suction cup toothbrush to his forehead. It left a hickey. TAD'S FIRST HICKEY!!
Below: Tad better watch out now that Uncle Ben is mobile again!
Below: You can see the round hickey better here. Kind of have to look hard... but it is there!
Below: Grandpa Dale got him so rabbit ears. He wouldn't keep them on long enough for me to get a good picture.
Below: Tad pushed this table from the sitting room all the way to the living room. He thought it was time to play games.
Prayer Request: My coworker and friend is battling Pancreatic Cancer and is currently in the hospital with an infection. She is 8 months into her battle and is having a rough stretch. Her name is Theresa Ferrell.
