Well I guess we will start with the sad news………..My grandpa Aldo has been given 4-6 months to live.  They just found out he has cancer and apparently it has spread.  My mom is in Missouri now visiting him.  We wish we could be there and send our very best to everyone.  The last time Noah and I visited I was pregnant with Cooper and surprised him on his 80th birthday.

Noah is a budding artist.  He LOVES to color.  His pictures have such great detail.  It’s funny to see how far he has come.  Cooper has been drawing too.  He loves to draw Bevos.  HIs favorite color is orange.  He is such a TExas freak it is wigging us out.  He has lived in Texas longer than anywhere else so I guess it makes sense.

Last weekend we had another fun Sunday.  Again we hit the Original Pancake House and the kids devoured the pancakes.  Noah loves going dowtown.  After we eat he always asks if we are going dowtown.  This time we went to Zilker Park Botanical Garden for the Dinoland exhibit.  The boys had a blast.  We did dino digs, dino bingo, planted a fern, and toured the dinosaurs.  I wasn’t feeling well so we made it a short day and headed home to watch football. 

I have been out of commission for the last few days.  Gregg got a crash course in the day time operations of the JJ.  It was nice having the time off.  While I recuperated I also spent time cleaning and straightening up the house.  WE have now hired a house clenaer but before she comes I have to get the house in order.  I know it sounds odd but things needed to be thrown out and cleaned up.  THe boys and I gave away 3 bags of toys and threw away one bag.  The upstairs room is still full of toys.

We finally got rain here.  Gosh I can’t even remember the last time it rained.  The pressure headache is enough for me to never wish rain again.

I have got to say I am bummed out by Heroes.  I was going to post something after last week’s episode but waited.  Last night’s was better but still not feeling it.

My sis Susan is 11 weeks along in her pregnancy and everything looks great!  Good News!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
