Hello World

What a doll! Shelby is beautiful and attentive when awake. As you can see very intelligent. I can hardly wait to enjoy all the things she learns and shares with me. What a wonderful time to start your life, with opportunities all around. She has a wonderful mommy and daddy that will give her lots of opportunities and love.

Grandma and Shelby's matching day

Arizona Bliss

This joy of being a grandma is indiscribable. I am in Arizona enjoying helping Dustin and Kyla with their new baby,

Shelby Ruth Pennington. She was born May 13th, 6 lbs. 15 oz. and 18 1/2" long. She is beautiful and already loves Grandma. I have also been able to visit with Kaycee. We have been enjoying eachother too. I'm missing the kids at home though. I've especially been appreciating my best friend and husband. He's putting in extra duty so I can be here playing. What a great guy!

Uncle Levi with Kaycee

We all enjoyed feeding Kaycee and learning her likes and dislikes. She did get a little tired of all our loving. Everyone had to get alot of loving in before she had to go home.

Thumbs come in handy and they are always available at a moments notice.

Joys of Grandmahood

Joys in life are sometimes few and far between, but I'm starting to understand to enjoy and appreciate the small moments as they come. Alysa and Kaycee came to visit for two weeks. What a delight to get to know this sweet little spirit. She has the most beautiful red, auburn red hair and spunk to go with it. What a "delight" she is to her parents. Growing pains here we come. Dustin, my oldest son, was able to visit for a week during the wedding events also. It was wonderful to hear of his goals and dreams. I am planning a trip to Arizona in a few weeks to welcome a second grand daughter into the world. Kyla, Dustin's wife is due May 17th.

I am looking forward to many more joys as our family continues to mulitiply and grow.
