Pippi Girl
My friend, Nat and I swap babysitting once a week; I watch her Mason Tuesday afternoons and she watches Piper Thursday mornings. Well, this past Thursday I was super sick with the flu, and she offered to take pip so I could take it easy and rest. When I picked her up, Nat had done her hair in 2 cute braids, (she's obsessed with braids at the moment). When we got home, she begged to have me take her picture so send to her daddy. What a little cheeser!
Heeleys
Beck LOVES his Heeleys! He saved his money to pay for half of them, so he's really taken great care and appreciated them too! He's finally mastered the art of the Heeleys and is a complete maniac on them!
Sickos
The flu bug hit our house in a bad way this week... Piper last Saturday and Sunday; Beck came home sick from school Tuesday, and it it me Wednesday night. Good times... Hopefully the dreaded flu is gone for good!
Grandpa Payne
My grandpa Payne isn't doing well. He's steadily declined in health for the past year or so, but he's been really bad since he was septic about 2 months ago. Hospice was called in 2 days ago and that same day he fell and broke his hip. Right now he's bed ridden. Luckily, his Dr got him into a home for the next 5 days so that he can have around the clock care. My poor grandparents; they love each other and want to take care of each other desperately, but right now neither is able to help the other. We're spending a lot of quality time with them as his end nears. He's been such an incredible person in my life! Not many grandpas coach their granddaughters t-ball teams or watch them every Friday so their mom can work a little bit. He calls almost every day just to say he loves me, and ends up hanging up early because he gets so emotional. He's never without a coin to pull out of my kids' ears. It's been so hard to see him like this, in do much pain and confusion. I just love him so dang much.

Election 2012
I am so incredibly proud and excited to have already voted! Yay for early voting! I love democracy and feeling that whatever the outcome of the election this Tuesday, I had a small part in it...
