July is my month to celebrate!

Friday, July 16 is my birthday and Saturday, July 17Th is my littlest grandson, Jacob's 3rd birthday. What a nice birthday present he was for me 3 years ago.

What a cutie he is in this little toy car. He loves to ride little BIG wheel bikes. He loves to play in the sandbox. He loves our dogs, especially Patches our littlest dog. He just loves to hug her. He loves to pet Dutchess & Cody. He is so cute trying to play tug of war with the doggie pull toys. Patches doesn't like to let go, so he pulls her around, gently.

He is our miniature Tommy when he was his age. He is our escape artist from the backyard. He loves to climb fences, railings, and anything else he can climb. His daddy was the same way. Tommy at his age climbed a metal cabinet that I used for bathroom towels when he was a little tyke and he tried to climb it and it fell over on him emptying all the towels. He thought that was so funny, but not me. Jacob is into everything, just like his daddy was at his age. It is like watching Tommy grow up all over again. God Bless his mommy!

DON'T LET HIS CUTENESS FOOL YOU!

The "Big" Birthday Party

June 19th Leanna Rose turned nine years old. It is so hard to believe that 9 years have come and gone for us waiting at Sacred Heart Hospital for her arrival. Here she is enjoying her new bike from us. We also, got her a helmet because it is the law. Plus, we got her some other presents that will surprise her.



June 27th is Justin's sixth birthday. He is growing up so fast with learning from his older sister. He is going to be so surprised by all his presents, especially his new Big Wheel. Shhh that is a surprise! It is red & white Radio Flyer big wheel. His daddy will have to put it together after the party is over, Yippee, for him. Thank goodness for daddy.

Ice Cream Party

Here is the all the ice cream waiting to be eaten for the ice cream party.

The gang waiting patiently for the ice cream party, while I was at choir practice. We have my three grandkids-(left) Leanna, (right) Timothy, Justin, (the kids I sit for) Kobe and his sister Kylie.

Kobe below is enjoying his ice cream, yummy!

As you can see on Kylie's face it was lots of fun and yummy!

Timothy's mean look, Make my Day!

Timothy has some of the funniest expressions! And what makes it funnier still is the fact that the meanest expressions don't seem to be provoked by anything!

Here's what I was talking about with Timothy's cute expressions. You can't help smiling at him when he is so darn cute!

Jonathan Enjoying the Snow, also!

Here is Jonathan helping shoveling snow, while his Dada is shoveling too. He loves the snow from when he was out visiting his grandparents in Michigan.

Here is Jonathan With his Dada, John...

Jonathan is such a sweet little boy. I don't get to see him too much like I want too. He is 2 yr. old, also.

He enjoys spending time with his Dada as he calls him. Right now his father, John is attending school for HVAC at night and watching him during the day so his mommy, Jamie can work. John lost his job a few months ago due to closing their doors. It is really helping Jonathan and John develope a father/son relationship.

Jonathan Playing with Play Doh

Jonathan is really concentrating on his play doh.

Jonathan's Headboard

Jamie's dad is wonderful with making things from wood, he made this headboard for Jonathan's bed.

If you look close enough, Jonathan is in the train.
