Having so much fun being a Grandmama!



Bruce and I drove up Tuesday night after work to babysit Brynlie while Rachel and Travis ran an errand.  When we arrived, Brynlie was falling asleep.  I said to Brynlie, "Come to Grandmama!"  Her eyes opened wide for a minute.  Either I scared her or she recognized my voice! (lol)  I am going that she recognized my voice!  Just love being a Grandmama! :)

Yellow Sunday!



Sunday Bruce and I made dinner for the 4 of us. As we were packing up, Bruce noticed that we were having a yellow dinner (didn't think about the colors as I was planning the meal). I made chicken enchiladas, chicken flavored rice (Rachel can't have spicy foods), corn and to drink Ginger Ale and Applie Juice. For dessert we had yellow frosted cupcakes! :) Travis had also bought banana creamies. Rachel's cousin, Megan, said we should have worn yellow! You know I would have had I thought of it before! Had a fun Sunday afternoon with the Thompsen Family!

Great Grandpa Jackson

Rachel's cousin, Danny Buffington and Bruce's Dad drove up to Clinton, Utah to visit Rachel, Travis and Brynlie! Great Grandpa Jackson being a little nervous as Rachel was giving Brynlie to him to hold asked, "Does she bite?"

My computer wasn't working until now and that is why I am so late in posting. Rachel and Brynlie doing well! Brynlie still not growing as fast as the doctor's would like her to, but she is healthy! Rachel is loving being a new mom and feels so lucky to be a stay-at-home!
I am going to spend Wednesday, Thursday, Friday helping both mom and baby!
