You’re welcome.

I have a set on Flick with a LOT more pictures of who she was, and what she meant to us.

Sorry about the unannounced disappearance. My grandmother ended up in the hospital, with what was determined to be a flare up of her ulcerative colitis. So I spent four days hanging out in the hospital, and then helping her in her return to home. She’d lost a lot of strength, so she needed a fair amount of help. Luckily, she has a home health aide who is wonderful.

The hardest part of the entire week were her comments about how she was tired of living and didn’t understand why she was still around. After this week, I understand her exhaustion with life, but hearing that still pains me.

So I hope you’ll forgive me my absence, but I’m fully aware this may happen again.

Or it is when I get to spend it with Jules.

Here are some of my favorite pictures from yesterday.

Nothing like spending time with a happy (though slightly sick) baby to make life look better.

Here are some of my favorite pictures.

Gravity still works. Imagine that.

Because I know you all want to see ’em.

Michael says, “SMILE or ELSE!”

“I’m SMILING! I’m SMILING!”

I took a lot of pictures today.

Like 700.

Out of that there were 50 I thought were pretty good that I uploaded to Flickr.

These are some of my favorites of those:

CHICKEN DANCE! (Yes, Jules loves the Chicken Dance.)

Jules and Holly. Holly is an extremely anti-social husky, however, she seems to have completely taken to Jules (notice that Brian still doesn’t trust Holly 100% yet.)

Angry Baby is Angry.

Sorry, seem to have forgotten what I was supposed to be doing here.

In case you were curious, Grandmom is doing well!

Huzzah! New pics!
