Checking in!

Once again, Linda, welcome back! I'm delighted to hear that you're so happily busy being a Nana. :) Do stop in and update us whenever you get a chance -- we miss you!

Howdy!

Good to hear from you, Linda.

R/Sandy--down here in Arlington where the weather is gorgeous..right now

Good to hear from you, Linda. Aren't grandchildren just wonderful? DH & I just returned from Georgia, and saw ours. They will be 8 & 10 next month. They are growing up fast. Let us hear when you have time.

Good to hear from you.

Aren't those grandkids sweet. I felt like I had been rewarded for something when I got mine. So I know how you feel. When my little grandson smiles I know that life is good. :~}

Hey, good to hear from you! I'm glad you are enjoying the beautiful grands, Linda. Do it while you can, they are little for such a short time!

Linda!!!!! Hi!!!! Welcome back. I know exactly what you mean about the little ones keeping you busy. Logan is 3 years old now, can you believe it?!! He's still quite the little flirt too. Christian is 19 months old, Gregory is 17 months old and Courtney is 15 months old. Christian and his mom moved back in with us last August so we really stay busy. I also keep Gregory a day or two a week. So having two toddlers is quite the experience. Don't you just adore those sloppy kisses?

I'm like you, I don't get to post very often but I at least try to pop in and read a few messages a couple of times a week. Take care.

Hugs, Mika

Welcome back, Linda. So nice to hear about your growing brood of grands. I can't believe that Norah is almost a year already. Where does the time go! I, too, am called Nana by my two grandkids. Finn will be three in August. I see him several times a week since they live 2 miles from us. And I have him 3 Saturdays a month while mom works. He is reading simple books, can count to 50, knows all his colors (in English and Spanish) and shapes including the trapezoid! He has a memory like a steel trap. He loves Matchbox cars and knows the location of everyone of them - and who gave them to him. He also is a big Thomas the Tank Engine fan and knows every engine and their names.

Ava is 18 months old and lives in Florida with my son and DIL. She is starting to talk big time and loves books. I have not seen her since November but I will get to see her soon. We (my daughter and Finn) are driving down in June to spend a week with my mom and get the kids together. They have not met yet so this is an exciting trip - can you say "Photo Op". I'm looking forward to getting some pictures of my mom (now 87) with both of the kids which will be a first. Mom now has a third great grandchild who was born in early March but she lives in Colorado and there isn't much chance at this point of everyone being at Mom's at the same time. So we take what we can get.

Looking forward to more updates on Norah and Jack!

Please tell Finn that I live just 12 miles from Thomas' home! There is a steam railway, with several special Thomas and friends days every year. I'll tell Thomas hullo from Finn, when I next go by >g< . In message , AliceW writes

Thanks, Patti. As it turns out, Pop-Pop was able to get Finn tickets to ride the Thomas train in June. That's all he talks about now - oh, that and our visit to Sea World while in Florida in June.
