Marques

Madden

I know I am fairly new to joining the ranks of Grandmothers, but in the
short 20 months that I have been one there are a few things I know, here
is a list of ten.

1-It is my right to spoil my grandchildren.
2-There are very few boundaries, when they want something, they get it.
3-A clean house is a thing of the past.
4-They are expensive.
5-Buying boy's clothes is wearing on me.
6-Grandbabies are so much fun to hold, and when they cry, you can always give them back.
7-The Disney channel is a staple at my house.
8-I actually like Noggin A Moose.
9-Having them cry when they have to go home is bittersweet.
10-I will never be able to drink a can of soda without sharing.

DoG DaY AFTERnOOn

Most of the people who know me, know that I have an adorable Basset Hound named Crosby. He is crazy about me and, well the feeling is mutual. Since we have had Crosby, he has had issues with his ears. Long basset hound ears = ear infections.
Because of his on going chronic infections we decided that the best thing would be to do the surgery which would removed his ear canal, along with his ear drum to alleviate further infections and the pain that comes along with them. Friday he had surgery and because the surgery is involving, he was required to stay overnight til Saturday. He came home wearing a collar to prevent him from scratching and some pain pills. After a rough three days, he is finally doing well.



Better Days

tRIcK oR TrEAt!!

So Halloween came and went. Normally there is nothing remarkable about it, except maybe a few newly made decorations that get added each year. Usually Larry and I argue about who will be the next one to open the door and greet the "trick or treaters". There was even the year when we agreed that if I gave out candy to all of them that year he would do it the following year....the next year came and he didn't keep his word. This year however, we were excpecting a special trick or treater. Little Marques looked adorable in his pumpkin costume. Next year, Madden will be joining him, Grandkids are the BEST!!
