Fun Night

If you go to El Paso Times.com you will find 2 pictures of my granddaughter Natalie in line to see Britney Spears. She was the cutest thing you ever saw. Too bad they didn't get her black and hot pink sparklie tutu. I was told no cameras and so I for once obeyed. I could have brought it no problem. Oh well. Our seats were so close we didn't need to binoculars we brought. I have been to lots of concerts in my younger days and I can't believe I am saying this but this was the best show I have ever seen. Little Brit put on a wonderful show. She's about as cute as she could be too. She did all of everyones favorites and the special effects were amazing. The guy in front of us told me he would send me pics and so I hope he remembers. I loved it and would go again for sure. I will post the few pics I do have in the morning. Good night friends, deb

Pictures and I Better Hurry

Natalie woke Heather up at 5:30 am to tell her it is Britney day. I took a nap and now I am a bit late getting ready. We are leaving for El Paso 5 hrs before the concert starts. It's only an hour away but we aren't taking any chances. Just found out no cameras allowed so hell. Here's a bunch of pics from our visit to Ruidoso yesterday. It was Aspencade but most of the bikers were gone by the time we got there. We had alot of fun anyhow just wandering and laughing. I am so glad you are back Molly. I swear I heard you that day. No really. Better get a move on.

2 More Dayz

I know everyone hates her but my daughter and I love her. Maybe because she kept us entertained with her craziness last year or maybe it's that she whipped herself back into shape and seems like she may end up alright.Maybe it's that without make-up she looks as awful as the rest of us. Even worse. I don't know. I like some of her songs on the Circus album. The first one I ever paid attention to. Whatever, I know we will have a blast Monday night. It will be something that little Natalie will always remember.

It's About Time

As life blasts past me, I sleep. Not at night like most of you but during the day when I should be out and about. Cady never puts the baby down for any kind of bedtime and so I stay up too. I only wish I knew why. Joe and I are way too in love with our granddaughter. It's something to do with her living with us. She is right here and we just keep thinking she always will be. Well right now thats a pretty safe bet but one day Cady may move and then the 2 of us shall die. We will be found holding broken hearts and clinging to pictures of our "not our baby baby". Cady went with her sister tonight to a birthday party for someone. Joe and I are all "where is our baby"? Oh it's not so bad for Cady. If I could nurse her I would. It's hard for her to be trapped at home all the time but then it's also her own doing. Make your bed and you lay in it too. That baby nurses 27-7. Cady is doing great with that end of things. We were poor as church mice when my kids were babies and I am loving being able to buy cute baby clothes for Isabella. We don't have much in the way of $ but enough that I can have a fun. I have taken maybe 600 pics of her since she was born. I take too many of all my family but it is what I love. Last night we went up the road to check out the flood and then spent till 3am playing Guitar Hero. I suck at hand eye games. I especially suck at this game. Cady was cheering me on for a while but eventually she was shaking her head and laughing. Still, I am going to try again tonight. I am pretty sure I could not beat or even keep up with my 4 yr old grandkids. If I hear Pat Benatar sing "Hit Me With Your Best Shot" ever again it will be too soon. I never made it to the game. I played the practice round all night. The very slowest and it was not slow enough. Fall is in the air and I love it. Really love it. I am going to get out my fall decorations tomorrow. I don't know when I started decorating for each season. The grandkids expect it and so I love it. I have developed a strange food thing like if I were 3 or 4 yrs old. I want no food, only yogurt. Plain full fat yogurt from the health food store. I have to have fresh chopped strawberries on it. I have lost alot of weight since I gave up food for just yogurt. I have no idea why I only want that stuff. I am ordering it by the case now because they forgot to order any last week. Its a small shop. Actually last week they had no cream top and the low fat was fine with me. It's so light, I have not been able to eat much meat for a long time. My family are big meat eaters and I am getting where I don't want to touch the stuff.
Monday night is the Britney Spears concert and I can't wait. Natalie is so excited. She is going to look so cute. I hope Brit makes it till then without doing anything crazy. Hope you have a nice week-end. The pics are my son Billy and his boys and Joe and Cady and me. Robin Billy's wife and Cady. It was the coolest mud flood ever.

Weird Post

When you post one day a month don't expect to have anyone stop by to read your pitiful post. I have no good enough reason. If it were I that had given birth, maybe. But I am just the grandma. I am sleeping much better now and thank you for inquiring. Also, it wasn't me who gave birth but I have lost about 16 lbs since Isabella has been born. Cady is doing great. She is pretty healthy again. Her teeth no longer on the verge of falling from her mouth. We load her face full of vitamins each day now. She is thin as a rail and most everyone who has given birth in the last year hates her. Baby is still breastfeeding and Cady is trying to convince all who will listen to give nursing a chance. Most all her friends are opting for bottles. I do believe it has alot to do with your mom and how she did it. There are the times where women want to breastfeed but have little or poor support. I used to feel like Cady, but now I don't care how others feed their babies. Just please feed them. Cady had a very wonderful birthing experience and wants so badly to help her friends have the same. Not many girls want to go thru a non drugged birth these days. I wish that more women were encouraged to try natural birth but only if they are not looking at 20 hours of painful labor. Why am I bringing this up? I have no clue. We watch Cadys birth tape once a week and it is fresh on my mind I guess. I think we were blessed that Cady was able to give birth in that way. If she had any problems then it all would have been different. I don't like this post and would delete it if I had not spent the last 30 minutes here. How bout I tell you what we have been up to? Okay. I guess I will have to leave a few pictures for now. My family is calling me. Heather took us to the mts on Sunday for pictures. We took some wonderful pics of Natalie and the baby. It was trying to rain so we had to keep Isabella clothed. Next week we will get better pics. We had the cutest little tiny tutu for her. I am aware that this post makes no sense. I am sleep deprived so be gentle. I will be better later.
