My Grandbabies

Are Grandbabies the most fun or what?! Here are my adorable grandbabies. Gabriel is 3, and Sharaya is about 7 months old.

We had them both over for a sleep over last night. We've had many sleep overs with Gabriel over the years. But it was a first for Sharaya.



Gabriel is a big Papa's (Grandpa's) boy. He has been since he was a tiny little baby. Now that he is such a big boy, he likes to do whatever Papa does. He likes me well enough, but he adores his grandpa. In fact if he comes over, he is happy to see me, but the first thing he asks me is where is Papa.



I was kind of worried about how Sharaya would be on her first sleep over. She is teething, and she nurses and doesn't take a bottle too well. But for the most part, it went pretty well. Although I didn't get a whole lot of sleep since she wanted to be nursed and she didn't understand why I wouldn't do it. She wasn't digging the bottle too much.

Gabriel slept downstairs with his Papa on the blow up mattress, and Sharaya and I had my room to ourselves. It was nice. Gabriel and Bryan played race cars, Lincoln logs, Wind up motorcycles and stuff like that. They had a midnight snack of Cheetos too. We decided we are going to try to do a sleepover once a month. It is a great way to bond with our grandbabies and stay close. Plus it gives my daughter a break that she doesn't get very often.

Kat, I really am jealous of your grandbabies! I can't wait until I have grandbabies! (I know, it'll be five or six years, but I can look forward to it.)

Cheyenne has informed me that she will let me babysit for her all the time.

Those pictures are so absolutely adorable! Sharaya has those big deep eyes and Gabriel is always so handsome.

They are both SO ADORABLE! We don't have any babies at our house anymore. In a way that's good, but they are so cute!

What beautiful pictures of those beautiful grandkids! It was so fun to get to see them at our Christmas party and before. They are special and I'm proud of Nikki for being such a good mama to them. Keep it up, Nikki! And they are lucky to have you two for grandparents. Enjoy! Grandma/Mom Terry
