My Buddies

I lost one of my buddies to first grade this school year.  We miss Jackson so much, but he is loving his independence and even loving school lunch!  But lucky for me, I still have two buddies at home!  I love spending my day with Bowen and Alivia.  We have a nice little schedule.  We run errands after Alivia's morning nap, and then spend the rest of the afternoon after lunch at home.  As Alivia has "grown-up" a little more this winter, she has become quite a fun friend for Bowen.  He is very sweet with her, and it's plain to see Alivia adores her Bo-Bo.  (I just noticed Bowen is doing the "peace" sign!  When Justin leaves for work in the morning, he says "peace out," and "peace in the Middle East.")



Bowen loves to play with cars.  I walked into the room the other day, and he had them looking like this!  He is such a good independent player.  He is creative with his play; it's fun to watch.  But he also loves the second Jackson gets home from school!  He plays non-stop with him the rest of the afternoon.




Our little Alivia is so fun to have around.  I am reminded of how much I love this age!  She is napping well, she is crawling everywhere as she explores the house, and she is pulling herself up to everything. We love to hear her little whispers, and her louder babbling!  She does say "mama" too.  And how could I forget her love for eating!  She's such a fun little girl!

Thanks from me, too, for you posting. I am a faithful follower of your blog and check in several times a week. I can't get enough of my sweet grandkids. Hi Jackson, Bowen, and Alivia...give your mom a high five and tell her "good work."
