The Three Stooges

Just for the record and an FYI for the rest of the family....Logan, Deverie, and I have decided (minus Logan since he can't really sit down and have a heart-to-heart with us about the situation at hand...YET...only 2 months from today...) that you can now refer to us as 'The Three Stooges.'

We felt a little left out that the younger grandkids got a cool nickname (The Three Muskateers--when there were FOUR in the picture??) and we have been here for 20 & 21 years and have YET to get anything that special....SO...we are doing what we feel we have to, and we have created our own nickname. Thank you for your love and support in this dire time of need (love and attention type of need) haha ;)

:D :D :D Just thought I'd inform the family of the green monster growing inside us...! ;) ;) ;) haha...

Christmas Names

After a few questions of what happened after the discussions last year to change how we did Christmas, we are deleting the Christmas name list that Mom sent out and redoing it. We will include all granchildren 18 years of age and under that are still in high school, jr. high and elementary. Anyone else who wants to be included can contact me BY October 1st and their name will be put in with the draw. Also, since we aren't sure how the parents of the great grandchildren want them to be included, I will also need an email from them if they want the great grandchildren included. I will send out a new list of Christmas names on October 2nd, so be sure to contact me before then if you want in. We hope this will be okay with everyone. We want to continue the tradition for the younger ones that the older ones enjoyed without it being a burden. We love you all and hope all is well. I'm using mom's original list so hopefully the email addresses are current. If you see some from your families that are incorrect, please notify them of the changes we're doing. Hope to see you soon.

Love, Lori

It's a Girl!

Here are a few shots of our little Girl! We couldn't be happier to see a healthy little baby girl in there! Jaxson has been saying for a long time that we were having a girl and with how thin the veil is for little kids I wouldn't be surprised if he really knew what he was talking about. He was so excited and asked me "Mom, will you take her out when we get home so that I can play with her." He is already planning everything that he is going to do with her. Tyson still doesn't quite understand, when we ask him if we are having a "boy or a girl" he says girl and if we ask if we are having a "girl or a boy" he says boy. He just says whatever we say last. But thats alright. We are all so excited and can't wait to see who she looks like. Our kids are so different so it will be fun to see what is coming next.
