I'd like to see, as mine are healthy newbies, and I have NO idea what I have in store.

Wow, you gals sure keep early hours. Ready for pics anytime.
This is my main accomplishment in my life. He is graduating from Stanford in June. Then he plans on going as far away from me as he can! I keep telling him he can run but not hide! LOL. I may have to move to the East coast!
As far as brugs go, ask me next year! This is my first year growing my own seeds. Though 2 great friends did name 2 of their creations after me! Gave me a huge thrill. That is a big accomplishment, having such great and loving friends. Thanks Susie and Tracey!
Kell...a major accomplishment !!! What is he majoring in? I guess he has the pleasure of having many songs written for him! LOL !!!
Thanks Margie.
You know I look at his picture and I am so shocked. He looks like a man now. He even talks like one! I keep thinking he is my little boy. This was taken on Mother's day. He told me my garden was way too crowded for his tastes. LOL
He double majored in Computer Sciene and Political Science.
I do not write any songs Margie, other people's songs just get trapped in my head. Dives me crazy!
Kell...I know what you mean, my oldest child is going on 40 next year, then the others 39, 36 & 32....it is hard to think of them as adults! But they REALLY are, and really wise ones at that !!
Gosh, you must have been a baby when you had them!
kell...well, thank you for the compliment! No I wasn't....if you saw me in the photo at Candy's, actually I look so old there. I don't feel that age!! I feel very young at heart!! : )))
I did see it and that is why I said that!
WELL Kell...now I REALLY need to Thank-you !!! : )))) !!!
These are my major accomplishments....8 grandchildren ages 1-8 years in age!! What fun! This photo is from mothers day, last year and includes my youngest daughter with her little one, who is now a year old !
They are used to having photos taken....and have put on their "smiles" for the photo! They usual look better than this!
Boy Kell!! That is a very handsome man you have there.I know you must be very proud of him .
Great looking kids. I have three kids and six grandchildren from 1-1/2 to 20 years old. Here is a picture of the two youngest granddaughters after playing in the mud in the gravel driveway.
Brugie...sounds like we are in about the same place, grandchildren wise!
Cute girls, you must be proud!!
My 2 youngest!
ForeverMorr is my best so far. The two top blooms are summer color and the two on the bottom are mid October bloom color.
ThAnks Amanda. I have just one and he is the love of my life.
Oh my, don't they look alot alike....Bruge's and Margie's grand girls? Esp. the baby girl! Beautiful children.
Gosh Margie, when I looked at your first pic there I thought that the poor young girl pictured had 8 kids already with a baby on her lap. LOL
Margie, you have a couple of little princesses there for sure. I love grandchildren. At least they do have to go home after a short visit. I'm too old to have kids around all the time anymore. LOL!
My major accoplishment is that I only killed 12 plants this winter.....
what about those other 25......????
they're just dormant....LOL
thats my story and I'm stickin to it
Gosh! Beautiful pics! Kell!! Woooohoooo! What a handsome young man!
Margie, beautiful grand babies! Brugie! LOLOL I laughed so hard looking at those pics. Mud on the face lol too cute.
LOL CC.
My major accomplishment was this. http://davesgarden.com/t/423419/
WOWIE, Kell, your son is so very handsome and smart too!! Stanford and a double major is most impressive; he's gonna make some very lucky girl mighty happy!! SLike
Well, all you grannies, I love seeing your kiddos, this is fun. Shirley, I love mud photos and your little ones are precious. Margie, eight in eight years?? You've been a busy girl, huh? I have 3 children and 7 grands, age 6 - 12. Attached is a photo of four of the girls - from left to right:
Courtney - hear no evil
Kristen - say no evil
Sidney - see no evil
Madeline - smell no evil

Snort!! That's pretty funny...
lol! snort chuckle chuckle.....!!!!!! (I'd better go knock on some wood!)
sherrylike....looks like your GC are close in age too!
For me that was 4 in 8 years, then GC is 8 in 7 years, my youngest child doesn't have any children yet. So, there will probably be more. 4 of the GC are 5 Y.O. !!!! (or will be in the next few weeks!)
Margie posted: looks like your GC are close in age too
You bet, real close!! And, with the youngest being 6 and the oldest being 13 in June, it is paying off. My oldest son had an almost 3 year old, an almost 2 year old, and newborn twins - 4 under three and all in diapers. It took several families to raise them. We thought they had set a record, but my first cousin's son, had a set of twins, almost three, an almost two year old singleton and then another set of twins.
Do yours live near Margie??? I have four next door and the others are two quick hours away in Little Rock. We have two boys and a girl that we didn't get until her mother (my aunt) died suddenly, she was ten, when we adopted her, and we were truly blessed!!! So I missed the baby years with girls and the 5 grand girls are taking up the slack, whew!!!
Here are my major accomplishments, in no particular order.
My daughter Lindsey, this picture is a few years old. She is getting married the 29th of this month.
My youngest, Matthew, who is 12 now.
Matthew with his big brother, Michael, who is my oldest, and has 2 children of his own.
My granddaughter, Hope, Michael's oldest, who is 2 now.
And the newest, Nathan, who was born in December, and is Michael's youngest.
MaryinLA....What a beautiful family...love the photos of the little ones especially!
Sherrylike...all four of my children live 1 mile (the closest) to 20 miles away. My oldest daughter had a 4 yo, a 3yo and then twins! They are still young & she is very active taking them to sports and lessons. I don't know how she does it.
MaryinLA, your daughter, your son, your grans are absolutely precious, I'd love to have Hope here to follow me around the garden, I LOVE her curls, are they red, my absolute fav hair color!!!!
Good golly, Margie, I thought we were the only ones with the births thisclose and twins. I think there must be something divine drawing us together, ya think??? Bless your daughter's heart, I know exactly where both of you are. There were several years there that every time I saw my son and his wife, that he didn't have one kid in a pouch in the front, one in the back, or that Gina wasn't nursing someone. Funny about our twins - all my grands were nursed until way past 1 1/2 years. When the twins quit nursing, they went to Gatoraid and Barbie bottles, can you believe that, LOL!!!!!
hmmmmmm............... I didn't quite intend for this thread to turn out like this, but I am most definitely enjoying it! Keep them coming! :)
those are the best threads Karrie! LOL
Mary your kids are great. But I have got to tell you Michael looks way too young to have 2 little ones of his own. Your little grandgirl is an absolute doll. Good work, Mom!
All these beauiful baby girls. I always wanted a girl!
You're right, Kell, he is way too young. He is 24, but you can't tell kids anything, can you?
So true Mary!!! And what is worse, at a certain age they start telling you! LOL
Your daughter got ahold of one BIG crawfish, Mary! LOL.
Great thread.....really cute pictures!
Gosh, I hadn't even noticed. That isn't a lobster?
Yes, it's a lobster :D
