Beautiful Girl!!!

This is Sadie, our only granddaughter! Saturday, she will celebrate her first birthday. Sadie is a beautiful baby girl, quiet like her mommy but can be as rambunctious and as rough as she needs to be when she is with the grandsons. She is walking, jabbering and popping teeth through. Sadie is a delight and a true beauty.

We had all of our grandchildren spend the night with us on Valentine's Day. We played board games (my, how Gabe loves board games!), the boys played with their DSes and and the night ended with all of them wrapped in blankets, heads on their very own pillows and watching Madagascar. They went to bed without a fuss and got up early the next morning to go out to breakfast with Granddaddy (Nanny gave up breakfast for a little extra sleep!) It was a great visit for all.

Mason is doing well. He is using the Big Boy Potty! SO proud of himself. The docs had said that he might be 5-6 years old before he would be ready to begin potty tainining and then, he might not have enough control of his muscles to train. But, Mason never has followed the timetable for milestones that the docs gave him. He tries so hard to do all of the things the other boys do and I'm so proud that he has that type of personality. He is having problems with walking, standing, talking and swallowing but he has therapy to help him with those things and he works very hard.

Looks like we are going to get more winter weather over the weekend. We're all ready for Spring time, here. I plan on contracting a fatal case of Spring Fever!! What about you?

Mae, Sadie is adorable! Such big brown eyes and very expressive face.
It's good to hear Mason is making good progress. I think of him often and have been wondering how he's doing.
