Joys of Grammy-hood

I was talking to DS's girlfriend Nicole on the phone last night and she was holding the baby while speaking to me. I could hear the baby gurgling and making other little baby noises! How magical, to be able to watch the little sweetheart developing new skills day by day!

I cooked up some chicken soup, and made both rice and noodles to go with it. I offered some to Nicole, who has been under the weather. She said she is feeling a lot better, but would welcome some soup anyway.

I'm babysitting tonight. The kids are going out for dinner and then to spend some time with friends. So I get to spend time with my favorite little baby!

Got a new photo too! DS Dan is holding Justin on a rocking horse.



Also have some photos from the Florida Keys diving excursion.

The Poconos! The surprise was blown (at least to my thinking) when I turned on the GPS to start out our trip. Up pops the address! Of course, it didn't tell DH where we were staying but it did tell him we were headed for East Stroudsburg PA! Dang! He was thinking we were headed for the Jersey shore. Then the GPS took us on a trip! I thought it would put us on the PA turnpike, taking the northeast extension. Wrong! It actually sent us up the NJ side of the Delaware River. So it was an adventure for both of us. We stayed at the Fernwood Hotel and Resort. I'd read excellent reviews and also some very bad reviews on the place. I was hesitant to book it, but it was the most reasonably priced lodging with availability on such short notice. There were restaurants on the grounds and lots to do in the resort and the surrounding area. We arrived at 10:00 pm on Friday to discover that the king accommodations we reserved in the hotel proper were not available, due to service ...
