Yesterday we had some surprise visitors. It was Brandon's Grandma + Grandpa Rice. We were so happy to see them. We made dinner and just enjoyed each others company. Grandma played with James and colored with Dantzel. Grandpa actually changed James stinky bottom and had a good time trying to get baby James to hold still. James thought it was pretty funny. Grandpa had a hard time catching him. He knows he is a fast crawler. Grandpa also had a good time playing with Dinky. Grandma and Grandpa both gave Dantzel all the change from their pockets and purse. Dantzel has almost filled her penny bank up to the top. She made bank from them that's for sure. It makes me wonder if I should get a penny bank for my kitchen counter. I think I could make a good living with some of the nice visitors we have had. :)
I had to sneak a few photos. These are the best I could do. Grandma doesn't like her picture taken too much. This will do for now. :)
SPEAKING OF GRANDPARENTS...
Brandon and I are grandparents. We are so excited to announce the births of our new grand puppies. Simba (our dog's wife) had puppies Saturday night. She had 1 girl and 3 boys. It was kind of funny because, Linda (Simba's owner and our really good friend) called us as we got out of Church and said that Simba was lost. She even closed her store to go home and look for her (while we were still in church). Since we will occasionally go pick Simba up to come play at our house, Linda decided to call us to see if we had her here. Of course we didn't. Besides we would call Linda before we would go and get her. Anyhow, we took Dinky up to there house just so he could smell for her. As soon as I got into Linda's house I could here Simba barking. Sure enough, she had gone in the back bedroom under the bed and had her cute puppies. She came out to greet me and, as soon as I saw her I could tell that she was skinny again. Then I listened some more and could hear the puppies crying. We called Linda right away. As soon as Linda closed her store again to come home to see the pups we moved the desk and we saw Simba with her 4 puppies. It was amazing, Simba had the puppies all clean and she was just feeding them. What a good Mom!!! She didn't even make a mess on the floor. Here are just a few pictures of her and her pups. I will get some more pictures as soon as I get back up to see them again. You have to keep in mind, Dantzel wants to hold them really bad and she is still so little herself. I don't want her to think that she is the mother. Simba still needs to keep them feed because there are so so small.
