Playing in the snow.

Well the snow did come and Sky had a 2 hour delay getting to school. The roads were slick during the morning but later in the day the roads cleared off. I took some cute pictures of Noah playing in the snow. It was a cold wet day but he was getting that cooped up feeling and showing it so I took him outside for a bit. He loved playing in the snow but it was a really wet snow so he got pretty wet. When Sky came home from School we went to Costco and got a Hot Dog and some Pizza for dinner and did a little shoping. When we got home Andrea and Nate had a nice surprise waiting for me. It was a delicious Chocolate Oreo Cheese Cake with a beautiful card with some $$$$$ in it. I tried to give it back to them but they insisted. It was a wonderful gesture but I wanted to come up and help and did not expect anything. But anyway Kids THANKS a million and I will get something special with it. Love you lots.

Today at music Class

Well today I took Noah to Music class and then to McDonalds to play. Here are some cure photo's of him doing his little songs. We got caught in a Hail storm when we were leaving McDonalds and boy did I get wet. The front door of the care was open when I was getting him in his car seat and then it hit. So the front seat of the car got covered with hail and of course I had to sit in it to get home. Yuk. We was also able to finally get a picture of Noah holding Aubrie. For a cookie however? He was watching TV and just wanted to get the cookie. It was cute though. Oh and it is snowing tonight. Lightly but still snow. Not what I like. Enjoy

Back to the Sunshine soon.

Well my time here is Washington is almost over. I will be going back to Arizona on Saturday. It has been a real blessing to have been here for little Aubrie's first two weeks of life. And to be able to help Andrea as much as I could. She is doing fine and little Aubrie is growing in leaps and bounds. We took her in for her two week checkup today and she weighs 6 lbs 14 oz which is more than a pound of wieght gain in two weeks. Her little cheeks are plumping up and you can tell that she is just doing wonderful. Sky and Noah are adjusting to her pretty good. Sky just wants to hold her and laughs at the cute faces she makes. She is totally in love with her new little sister. Noah is getting much better adjusting to having a little sister sitting in Moms lap and taking up so much of Mom's time. He has finally started liking Grandma again. After the first two days that Grandma had him during the Hospital stay he was not sure he wanted me around any more. I think he was afraid that Mom and Dad were going again. He has started giving me loves again and running to me. He is such a sweet little stink. And of course Sky and I played a lot of games almost every night before bed. As I write this I can hear the Rain and wind outside. The weather has not been to bad except for the last two or three day's and it has been raining a lot. I am going to try and get a picture of the 5 of them before I go home so I will post that when I do. What a sweet family. I have been driving Andrea around to all the Doctor appointments and so am learning the area pretty good. I think I could find my way around most of the time with the help of my GPS. I missed the turn off to Church last Sunday and it took me about 30 minutes to finally weave my way around and back to the church. Sky said I missed 33 turnes. She had quite a laugh about it. I will miss them so much when head back to Arizona. Just have to remember they we are only three hours away by air. And also thank heaven for Webcams. I am so blessed to have such a wonderful family. All of my children and grandchildren are so important to me. Sooo Back to the SUNSHINE on the 28th.

Aubrie First Bath:

Well our little Aubrie had her first bath tonight and as soon as Andrea put her in the water she pooped.......... Woops we had to start all over again . She did not cry very much and seemed to like it I will post the video. Soooooo Cute.

Troy's surgery

Well Yesterday my Son Troy had surgery on his Hip. He had a resurfacing done and it was very successful. He was in surgery about 2 hours and came home today just one day after surgery. I have talked to him a few times and he seems to be feeling pretty good. He sounded pretty good when I talked to him after the surgery yesterday and when I talked to him tonight he was home and laying on the couch eating popcicles with the kids and felt tired but okay. Here is a picture of him when he came up to Washington to visit Aubrie. It was great to see him. I felt really bad that I could not have been there for the surgery but he said he is going to have the other one done in the future and I will definately be there for that one.

Valentines Day

Today is Valentine Day and the kids woke up and had valentine surprises waiting for them when they came down stairs. We made suger cookies and just hung around the house. The baby has a little eye problem with a possible block tear duct. Pretty common for newborns. The doctor came to the house to check her out and left some meds for the eye. Andrea, Sky and I went shoping at Justice to try and Find Sky some clothes. She got a cute skirt to go with the tights she got for Valentine's day. She looked cute.

Little Aubrie Rose

We finally have a name. Aubrie Rose is how she will be known. Such a beautiful name for such a beautiful little girl. This is her newborn picture that was taken at the hospital.

Sky and Noah with baby sister

Sweet Baby

Now that our little baby girl is here we can now just enjoy her sweetness. They will be coming home today from the Hospital and the kids are so excited. Noah is not sure what is happening yet but I know that as soon as he see's her around a bit he will know exactly what is going on. Sky is just happy to have a little sister. Of course Grandma is also very happy about having her here safe and sound and that Andrea is doing great. Here are a couple more pic from the Hospital yesterday.

Time marches on

Well just two more days and we will have another little one in the family. I have been with Andrea to the Doctor's several times and see the baby on the Ultra Sound.,, What a cutie. I guess she will be around the same weight as Noah was. I will be very happy when she is here. Andrea and I have been just bumming around and shoping and getting things ready for the arrival of little baby girl Hutchison. No name yet........ Andrea says she has a list but has not decided on any name yet. She said that as soon as they see her then they will decide. Dont know what names are on the list but I have not asked either so guess I will be surprised. Knowing Andrea it will be a cute name. It has been pretty good weather up here most of the time since I arrived. However today it is raining. I took Noah to McDonalds today and then to PCC where he could push a little cart. We then went to McDonalds that has a playground and he played there for a while. Gave Andrea a little rest for a bit. I was able to find all the places by just following the directions on my GPS. Sure do like that thing,. It will be handy when I have to weave my way down to the Hospital with the Kids to see there little new Sister. That should be interesting, I am a little nervous about that but I am sure it will be fine. Well until later. I dont have any pictures to post yet.
