Sweet Blessings

Congratulations to my sister, Denise and her husband, Danny! They are expecting their fifth little baby in early December! The best part is, she had her tubes tied last March after her fourth was born:) We have been in awe over this for about a month now and have laughed and laughed! They finally broke the news to the world today so read about the story here.

Last night we had a little dinner drama. The gas in the grill ran out during the middle of grilling, so I ended up skipping my Bible study to stay home and finish up dinner with the family. We were making ribs and I was hungry, too! It ended up being a nice evening while we watched the kids play outside and enjoy each other. Excuse the way our rugrats look...Roy Austin just finished up his sweet potatoes and Caroline is the "sticky fingers/messy hair stage" (my family is laughing at that one!):

I'm LOL at the picture of Caroline with messy hair and sticky fingers/face. She looks just like her momma did at that age! Cute pictures!

What cute children...If they aren't messy kids then you aren't letting them be kids. It looked like a fun evening!

Your kids have such piercing eyes! So cute! Loved the one of Caroline with her arm around RA.

Now Donna, it is time for you to think about #3.

Suzanne said...

RA is a cutie! Look at those teeth already! I think he wanted some ribs too:) It was a good night to be out. Mitchell and I organized our garage after Sarah went to bed!

Amy said...

Wow....his eyes are gorgeous--very unique! And, I cannot believe he has 4 teeth! Samuel doesn't have any yet. He is a thumbsucker too--I think it's sweet.

Ain't my grandchildren cute? Love the pictures..
Those eyes are Roy's for sure......
Love you,
Jane

So Donna, the grapevine story I heard was that you had a fire in your grill and of course I envisioned a pile of charred rubble on your deck...I guess the real story was that you had NO fire in your grill. Oh well, I'm glad it wasn't as "exciting" as I thought. We missed you last night!

Jennifer said...

Okay, you could put a long wig on RA and he would look like Caroline's twin!! He is so scrumptious and I could just eat him up!!

I just read Denise's news (I'm way behind on reading blogs)...UNBELIEVABLE!!! That girl was made to have babies! :)

Donna said...

haha, Chelle! I think I had told Elizabeth that our gas burned out! Oops! I should have been more clear!

Denise said...

Tanks for the shout out Donna. You are still my second biggest referrer, even with being private.

Looks like you had a fun evening with the kids midst the craziness. The same thing happened to us last night...except instead of bible study I had a daughter who wouldn't take her evening nap ;-) Have a super weekend!

When I saw your children in the grass the first thing I thought about was fire ants. One downfall of living in Florida I guess! Adorable pictures though. I just love Caroline's clothes. You have to let me know where you found smocked dresses with Disney characters. They are so cute! We have a big Disney trip coming up in the end of the year and Georgia has to have them :)
