Another wild and fun weekend with our Grandbabies....boy are we pooped!!!

As I have read recently, "children are the cupcakes of life, grandchildren are the frosting!" Indeed! We had the exhausting and exhilarating pleasure of watching our Caleb & Lillian for a few days, and as the weekend draws to a close, I find I'm already enjoying some of the photos! I figured I share them with you, and show you how adorable they are. Who knew they could demolish a clean and tidy home in under 5 minutes. Yes, they are talented as well as adorable. I truly am in awe of the younger me, how did I do it? Deana is amazing, she does it so well. And as the babies sleep, and I gather the strength to go clean up, I wanted to jot down some of the highlights before I lose them in my tired brain. Caleb is so smart! Yes, I know! But he is! He wanted to go for a walk with his Papa, but as we strapped his sister into the double stroller, we went to put him in, and he cried out "no!", and backed away. What? We thought you wanted to? "No....I walk", he says. Ok then. Once again we tried to put him in, and he was adamant..."No". Then he showed us what he wanted, since words failed him. He points to, and touches the ground with one finger, ......"I walk." Then to emphasise the point to us dummies....he marches in place. OH....we get it. Finally! Poor baby needs sign language to communicate with us.

Then later while we waited for the pizza to arrive (Grandma ran out of gas....needed help with dinner) he sang the first few A,B,C's. Grandma tried to join in with him, and he said "no!" again. Then proceeded to sing the rest all the way to "J". Pretty awesome for not quite "2"! So I'll brag on him till you're all sick of me.... He's so smart!!!

And Lily, she is so stinking cute. She smiles so big, steals your heart, and she's so easy, till she's not. We laugh about that because she rarely gets upset, but when she does it's as if she's been saving it up! Whew! She takes an awful lot of bumps and spills, and seems to take it in stride. She's brave, frightenly so, in the bath tub, and holds her own with rambunctios older brother. She'll cross a room in seconds, then get her middle 4 wheeled stuck over something, and holler like the dickens. She almost flirts with her "Papa", smiling so coy and sweet. They get in yelling contests, but she wins with the cutest smile while yelling.

Here's a few pictures to document what I'm saying is oh so true! Adorable!
