Hi I'm Baby G

Hi I'm Baby G, they say that stands for Gracie Gillespie. I kind like that name. I got to see my mom and dad and they look kind of nice. I can see my mom cry every once in awhile, but Grandma tells me its just because mom is so happy that I am here finally. My mom told me I have two big brothers, Wyatt and Dean and they already told Grandma that they will take care of me and protect me. Hopefully they share their toys, whatever toys are, hopefully its fun.

I have had a little problem. Too much water in my lungs so I have to stay and be with these nice kind nurses for a little while longer.

Well I just wanted you to meet me and I am sure you will get to see more of me in the future. Bye for now.

The arrival of GRACIE GILLESPIE

While Mom is still in the hospital, I am creating this blog on behalf of my granddaughter Gracie Gillespie. Mom had been having contractions for several weeks so I am not sure if she is late or early, but she came in screaming like most babies. 9 lbs 3 oz, 20 inches long, and lots of dark brown hair. She came in with a storm. One of the first winter storms ended on November 15 and that is when she decided to join her two big brothers.







Gracie has had a little problem and so she and Mom need to stay in the hospital for a little longer. She had a little water on her lungs and they are trying to clear them out. Mom is doing well.

Mud

This picture makes me laugh you have to look closely. What kind of mom lets their kids just jump in the mud.

Done with the Hunt

Paul loves this time of year He can smell it in the air. That's right he can smell DEER... no, he doesn't smell them but he can see them for miles. He loves the deer and elk hunt. He will be gone for weeks up in the mountains trying sneak up on a big horned animals. On his own hunt he even took off his shoes for a few miles. I guess I need to buy him camo socks for next year. This year he decided to make some money doing what he loves. For three week he took guys from all around the country to hunt in our lovely mountains. He was successful in assisting five out of six men in their kills. It was hard work he said and he is glad to be done for the year. I am always glad to get my husband back physically and mentally.

Stitches

Dean went to McDonalds with his Dad and Wyatt. They had just sat down to eat there favorite meal. Dean fell on the chair and hit his chin, spitting it wide open. Paul said it was bleeding pretty good. Paul did what any dad would do and got handful of napkins and left his food. They drove to the pediatrics to get 4 stitches. Paul said he was really good the whole time. When I got home he was bouncing on the couch like nothing happen.

Silly boys

I wonder everyday what this little girl is going to look like. Which one of this silly boys will she look most like.

Largest Manmade Pit In the World

At the very last minute my Mom decided to join me and my brother and his family to go to the Kennecott Copper Mine. As we drove up to it I was telling the kids a few details about it and Wyatt just kept screaming "WOW" after each detail. I don't think he really knew how big of a "WOW" it was going to be.

The kids loved watching the trucks move around in the pit.

They have quite a large museum about the history and different facts about the rock they pull out of the pit. We got to watch a very informative 15 min. movie which the kids were really good about watching.

The highlight wasn't being at the pit, but leaving the mine. We were held up on the road for some of the trucks to pass us by. You don't get the concept of how large those trucks are until you have one coming at you. It took the entire road for it to move around on. The kids loved it.
