Papaw passed away today. Grammie called at around 1:30 and told me. I knew he was in the hospital, because the ER had called and told me that my Dad had just been brought in. Well, I called April and told her. They got dressed to go and while they were waiting on Mom to get dressed, she tried Dad's cell to see if he would answer. He did. He told her he was still at work, and didn't know what was going on. I get another call from the ER a few minutes later, they didn't mean to say my Dad, it was my Grandfather. So, I had to call Grammie at work and let her know. She got out there, and soon after he passed. He was a wonderful, caring man and will be missed terribly.

Today was a sad day. :( James left for Basic Combat Training today. It's going to be 9 long weeks before we get to see him again. We were lucky though, because he was supposed to leave at 10 am, but the recruiter finished his paperwork without him, so we got to keep him until 11:45. We went to McDonald's and let the kids play for awhile before time to go because it's right next to the recruiters.

Today was Pachea's 3rd birthday. It's so hard to believe. She had a nice party. Of course, everything was pretty pretty pink. April did a really cute princess castle cake. I'll try to post some photos of it later.

A New Toothie!!

Xander's 3rd tooth has broken through!!! I can hardly believe it, my baby now has 3 teeth. It's both very exciting and sad. I don't want him to grow so darned fast. I mean, it's bad enough he is crawling everywhere; a hundred miles an hour & pulling up. Oh well, nothing I can do to stop it. Just have to enjoy every moment while I can & thank God for each & every one.
