"Talking to Giggy"

I was having a really bad day today, after a really worse week, (due to the Ice Storm and spending 4 days and 3 nights without electricity, heat, and water) but talking to Emery on the phone made me feel much much better! She was having waffles for breakfast and I see that she has a sticky face!

Thank you Emmie for cheering me up!

Hopefully things will get back to our routine this coming week and I'll see you Monday!

PS: Tell your Dad "thank you" for emailing me these pictures!

All I need for a fun bath is.........a FROG!

No, I haven't quit updating our Grandma page. It's just that Jake has been sick for a few weeks, he and Emery have not been able to visit and play together, so no new pics of them. I will get back into the swing of things soon. Great news tho, Emery's Grandmother in Texas called last night and she has found Emery a frog of her own! I can't wait to see Emmie's face when she gets it! There will probably be some more "frog snatching" going on tho, as Dee said it was blue with dark blue spots....yep, BLUE is Jake's favorite color, so he will be wanting it!

Welcome to the world Eliza Grace!

Congratulations to my good friend Janz on the arrival of her new granddaughter! She joins her big sister Ayla! A beautiful addition to our "Grandma's Brag Page!"

Phooey on being sick!

...and phooey on having to go to the doctor! Phooey on not getting to go to Mamaw's house! Phooey on not getting to play with Emery! Phooey, Phooey Phooey!!!!! "I'll be so happy when things get back to normal!"

Jake the Computer Whiz!

"I just love reading the Proud Grandma's Blog! (It is always so well written and informative,) and the pictures are always just too cute for words!" ....and don't worry Mamaw, if I mess up your computer, my papaw Junior can come fix it!

...And the frog goes hopping home......

Emery's Mom had to have surgery this week, so Emery has spent the week at my house. All week she has asked to see her buddy Jake, but he's been sick and had to go to the doctor. Yesterday Renee explained to Emery that Jake was still sick. Well, Emmie did the sweetest thing, she sent Jake's Frog home to him. I suppose she thought that might make him get well sooner! After all these weeks of hiding and keeping "Jake's Pog" (as Emery calls it), she let it go....what a thoughtful thing to do! Emery has really missed her Mom and Dad, but we've had fun. Thank you "Mamaw" for giving her the bath, and for seeing to it that Jake's frog made it safely home!

I Can't Find My Frog!

"It's green with spots, and about this long!"

"I haven't seen it for days!" (something froggy going on here?)

Help me find a FROG for Emmie....

Here are photos of "Jakes Frog" (and the Lizzard that I tried to substitute for it!) The Frog is approx. 6" in total length.


If anyone anywhere out there ever sees a soft squishy rubber "Frog", please buy me one! This one belongs to Jake, and Emmie is hiding it from him so that he can't take it back home! She absolutely loves that frog! I have looked high and low trying to find her one, but no luck!

She calls it a "Pog"......After not finding her one of her own, I bought her a lizzard of the same type, (soft and squishy) and she seemed to like it at first, but being the "Little Miss I want what I want" that she is, she didn't like it because it's mouth would not open like "Jakes Pog".
She kept handing it to me, poking at it's face and saying "Open It!".......When she found out that it could not open it's mouth, she threw it in the toy box and proceeded to hide Jake's frog (again) where she's been keeping it!

I'm afraid that if Jake don't get to take his frog home soon....it will be lost forever.....ribbitt!
