Lost time!

From the end of December until mom was out of the hospital - I didn't publish any pics so here a some pics that I took during that time.
One wkend on the way into the hospital I stopped off at Dinah's to see Ayla.


This is a pic of mom - once she was out of the acute hospital and in the continuing care center to work on getting stronger.   
RJ and I spent a couple of hours with David on Sunday  -  after we picked him up from sunday school.


Another wkend - David spent a Saturday with us - he loved watching movies on my laptop.  RJ would try and take him on walks outside - but he would steer RJ back to the house so he could watch movies.




Victor had a day at school where he had to wear a special shirt - so he decided to make his own.


One of the days in Jan where we had a lot of snow. 

On one of our many visits to the hospital.


Some of us got together at Pizza Hut - one of the last Saturdays in January.  David just loved touching baby Ayla. 








RJ just couldn't stand the thought of me taking his pic while he was on the treadmill - he jumped off (while it was still going) and came after me.

For some reason Lucky doesn't like my new camera - everytime he sees me w/it he runs and hides - here I found him in the boys tub.  Other times we found him in Victor's bed.   

Tommy doesn't like this guy (J. Boothe- Victor had to make him for a project at school.)  everytime he sees it he runs the other way - or he walks way around it and stares at it.  So of course we have had to experiment with it - and it has been pretty funny - but I am sure Tommy is sick and tired of it by now.

Nettie came over w/Ayla one evening to use the treadmill - so I started taking some pics. 


Spring Break has ended-next week back to school!

Well it was a sad day that we had to say good bay to our old Zenith TV - (what RJ is sitting on in the pic to the left).  We tried to make it go but when all we would see is a dark night when movies were put in and no gaming could be played - it was time.  So Rj and Vic picked out a new one this week and they connected all the necessary wires and WOW - what a difference!  


As an early birthday gift - RJ requested to visit Colombo's in Elkhart.  They have the most awesome pizza!  



RJ and Victor playing their game.  Thank goodness for very nice neighbors who are so happy that the court gets some use.  




Today it is really cold - but running around makes it bearable!
