oh-oh

So, it seems we'll be spending a little more time here in Arkansas. Due to weather beyond our control, we have cancelled and rescheduled our flight home to Thursday. I'm psyched! Two more days with my southern family! Brayden should be good and spoiled by the time we leave. We love babysitting him. He's such a fun boy.

Time to check on dinner and to plan our next two "vacation" days......whoohooo!!!!

We made it!

Well, we have arrived!! The snow in RI didn't delay our flight out at all. Clear sailing all the way to Baltimore. After lunch we headed to the gate for the second leg of our trip. I was lucky to get a window seat and we saw a beautiful sunset. Tabitha picked us up; one quick pizza stop and we were "home". Brayden!!! Boy, what a bundle of energy...........he never stops. He is just so cute. He loves to tickle Jim's beard--he just laughs and laughs. After his bath, Pop-Pops read him a book. Bedtime at last (for everyone!) That's where I'm heading now........it's been a long day. Tonite is only the beginning of a fun week.

snow!!!

Okay....is this a trick? It's really snowing; huge, fluffy white flakes. We're flying today! I did receive an email from Southwest..........all flights are on time. And , as I type, I hear a plane taking off over my house. Phew..........I guess we'll be ok. Warmer weather and adorable Brayden----here we come!!!!!!!!!!!

Arkansas....here we come!!

So, it's a balmy 17 degrees right now here in little Rhody. It has been bitterly cold most of this week. Well, hopefully, it will be warmer in Arkansas. We leave tomorrow at 12:10! No matter what the temperature or weather, just being with family will warm our hearts. One smile from Brayden and all the icy cold will just melt away. We're going to visit and celebrate Brayden's 2nd birthday. It doesn't seem possible that he's that old already. I had forgotten how fast they grow. He's learning new things all the time. His little brain is a sponge.......soaking up everything. I think he's remarkable, actually. He's talking more and his eye to hand to foot coordination is amazing. Am I bragging.....well, maybe a little. I'm just so proud of him and his Mom & Dad. They're doing such a good job. Well, I'm just about all packed and can't wait til tomorrow. See you soon, Brayden!!
