the past few weeks........

I have had a WILD few weeks. From the birth of my second neice to the visit of my sister and mil. All was very pleasant, minus a few things here or there. The birth went great! My neice is beautiful! My sister's visit was nice minus a little tension the last two days. I LOVE my sister but we get on each others nerves sometimes.
My first niece, my sisters child is a gorgous, chunky monkey! She has more rolls than the Michelin man. LOL More to cuddle up on. You wouldn't know she is only 3 mos and 5 WEEKS premmie.
The one thing that went well that I was dreading was the reunion with my dh's estanged mother. Their relationship has been very rocky. LOOOONG story. I have just stood out of that one totally. It was all on him. At first he really didn't want to even see her. Then she came down to visit Patty and hopefully Mike. She and her husband came here to visit. It was a tad strained but went very well. We went up the following day and it went better. In fact, we plan on visiting them for Christmas. My only fear is that she decides she doesn't want to put anymore effort into the relationship and Mike and my kids get hurt. I think she is for real this time. It was really great to get to hang out with her and Steve, her husband. He really dug hanging out with the kids. Shoot, he is a better grandfather for the kids than their real father. I am so not going there right now........the last post shows my reasoning... Here is another great example. They all had a little get together at Patty's. It went well until he opened his big, fat mouth. He told Steve,"Just wait until YOU get grandkids." Of course Patty pointed to Andrew and said that HE was his grandchild too. ~~SIGH~~
