I said I'd post more often--that is true, but I do have a good excuse. My dear loving mother-in-law that can't stand me is here visiting. She's been here nine days and I have one more to go. Now for the good news. We have a grandson, Benjamin Robert Williams, born Dec 28 and weighing 8 lbs 7 oz. Despite a little scare when the nurses thought he was not peeing and freaked us all out, he peed and pleased us all, so we relaxed. He's precious and adorable. Aren't those typical grandmother words?
I've had Claire, my granddaughter visiting, and we've had a lot of fun together. She got to sleep with me, and her dark conversations are so cute. For instance, this morning she woke up before the sun came up. She wiggled and grunted and finally, when none of that seemed to rouse me, she kicked me. I leaned up and looked at her, and she said, "Granny, I'm AWAKE!" I said, "Well Granny's sleepy and it's not daytime yet so why don't we sleep a little longer?" I got a big sigh, and then a resigning, "Ok..." We slept for about thirty more minutes and then she said, "Granny, I'm awake AGAIN!" ha.
We went to Chucky Cheese and she loved that. She has really kept me entertained for the last few days. She sang me Christmas carols. She taught me all about the cool kid sites on the computer, and I now know all the cartoon characters names.
Last night, she was in the tub, and I mentioned that Granny's bathtub has bubbles. After she was done, dry, and dressed, she decided she wanted to see the bubbles. I filled the tub back up and she peered over in there while I turned on the whirlpool. The noise scared her and she ran out of the bathroom and said Hurry Granny, get out of there! :)
We had a nice Christmas, but two of my kids could not come home. Cindy of course, was very pregnant and could not travel, and David had the flu. However, Chris and his girlfriend (Ok, he says she's not, just a girl he sees naked, his words not mine) came from Arkansas. I really like her and wish she was his girlfriend, but of course he would never want someone mom picked.
My daughter got me a gift card from Amazon and I found out my favorite author has a new book coming out, so I ordered it and can't wait to get it! I loved her Cold Rock River. This one is called All That's True.All That's True
I'm still drawing. Taking a class online at www.drawingtutorialsonline.com. I'm having a lot of fun with it. I'm going back up to my daughter's in Nashville on Monday to stay with her a few days. I'm looking forward to seeing the grandbabies again. That's all the news around here. Mother in law leaves TOMORROW!

Oh my god your son tells you she's "just a girl I see naked." I am embarrassed for you just reading that (not that he engages in premarital sex, just that he said that to you!).
He says worse than that. He called Cindy when she was in labor and said, "How's your uterus?"
