Jake and Now You Can Say It

Aunt Debbie kept little twin Jake the last two days.  His big brother, Walt, was hospitalized, and Jake came to stay with me.   The guys are four weeks old now.  Unbelieveable.




Little Precious was not happy unless there was a bottle attached to his mouth.  Plus, he missed his big brother; he kept screaming, "Waaaaaaalllt! Waaaaaaaalllt!" 

Totally reminded me of why God gives babies to young couples. 



There's a little bell in the ear drums of my old person head, and when baby hits those certain decibels, that little bell ringsringsringsringsringsrings...SCREAMIN' RINGIN'!  I already know now that when I have grandchildren, I am going straight to Freight Warehouse for a box of ear plugs.  I think that might help with the bells.




Finally...Isn't that just the sweetest little face. 

I delivered little Jake to his mom and brother this morning.   On my way home, I grabbed a few pictures at the restoration house of the beautiful snow.

Ok, you can say it now.  I can hear you across the miles.  "Hahaha!" (Especially you, Chicklet!)  Not to worry, however; this snow will be gone by Sunday.





The woods were so quiet.



Peaceful.




Can you pick out the critters in the shed?  Two young calves sought shelter from the storm.
(I can see my camera was focused on the barbed wire -- my bad.)


  
Mary made the snow angel.  Millie and Bella helped.




Look out for the poles!

Gotta love the pink boots!



That's some cold love.

Sending some Texas warmth your way.

  3. Jake is precious! I think I should get some earplugs for the constant 'Mommy, Mommy, Mommy" or how my oldest has begun to call me 'MOMMA, MOMMA". Now I understand why my mom would say there's no one here by that name right now.

    Love the snow pictures. It's just wet and cold here in Houston.

  5. Awwww...he is a cutie. Hope his brother is ok. Keep us posted. I will be praying for a quick recovery.
    Isn't the snow beautiful. I am working on my laptop right now, trying to restore all my programs I lost. Going to try and upload some new pics of the snow.
    I am finally starting to feel better too. The SNOW DAY helped!
    Hugs,

  6. Hi, so nice to meet you. I’m Yoli, a fellow “Texas Blogging Gal”. Jake is adorable and I send my prayers to the family. I love when my teen kids were babies. The crying is different as teens; I think they call it whining.

    I made it my goal to visit each member’s Blog. I don’t want to just “drive-thru” to meet a quota, but instead to share the gift of friendship that God gives us all. I’m excited to read your inspirational stories and see your creative works. You are always welcomed at my Blog, where “Mi Casa es Su Casa”.

    God Bless You!

  7. I have always said menopause is God's way of saying "put the baby down and step away from the crib".
    Isn't it amazing how much snow we're getting here in Texas????? :)

  8. That baby is awfully sweet. Do you suppose that "late in life fertility" runs in the family? What a picture you make of motherhood and domicility!
