Sweet Babies!


Isn't she just the sweetest thing?  Oh, you think I'm a bit biased?  Well, around here everyone seems to agree with me!
This was taken on Tuesday morning (3 days old) Barrett and Raya both had woke Dalayna up pretty early and neither was too interested in letting her get anymore sleep, so when I got up Dalayna left baby downstairs with me while she went back to get a nap.  Of course then Raya slept for a couple hours!
Do you recognize the name of this book?  I'm pretty sure they don't print it anymore, although when my older kids were little I did find a copy (which unfortunately they wore out)This particular one belonged to my mom when she was a little girl.  We kids loved to spend time looking at them--very carefully and under supervision I might add, as the book(s) are a cloth like paper combo, and they were very worn and taped together back then.  Jessi inherited this book from her Gramma 'Cilla and we have enjoyed reading it.  Quite a few times now!

And speaking of gifts--Miss Jessi got this fun floor puzzle from her Auntie Nish.  The first several times she worked on it required a little bit of help, but soon she was putting it together all on her own.  It's provided quite a bit of entertainment.  At least the pieces are pretty hard to loose track of!
I'd hate to give the impression that Relyssa is sitting up here doing nothing...hehe!  Once in a while she does manage to make herself useful...... :D
Barrett hasn't paid a whole lot of attention to his baby sister for the most part, so it was pretty cute to see him sitting here watching.
Wednesday morning I caught this photo of Jessi holding Raya.  Jessi is a wonderful big helper, and loves to hold her baby sister!
I was trying to get a picture of Barrett this morning--he was so cute running around in his jammies, but for the most part he was moving too quickly and everything turned out blurry.  I took this snap across the room, and although I  didn't think it was that good a picture, there is really something timeless about it.  3 little kids in their morning jammies- a couch, the milk--
I don't know about you, but it just makes me want to pick them up and squeeze them!
I'll leave it on this note for this morning--we kind of take our time getting around in the mornings here, but it's "that time" now, breakfast is over & time for  Grammie  to find some clothes for kiddo's, comb some hair & make the bed.

  5. Beautiful grandbabies!

    Aaah, I'd forgotten about that book! It's too non-PC for me to even consider owning down here! That's sad, because I remember it as a nice story...

  6. It is politically incorrect to even OWN a copy of Little Black Sambo! But I read it often as a kid.

  7. Our library had a BEAUTIFUL copy of little black sambo, at least the story was correct, but I wonder what the title really was. I had one, too, and loved it. I wonder why everyone loves that book so much. I don't think it has anything to do with the title.
