Good morning!!  It's Friday!!  Yeah!!  I am ready for the weekend!!

Tomorrow our friends Victor and Caroline Jaime are hosting a baby shower for their son Stephen and his wife Vanessa.  They are also having a boy.  It seems like lately that everyone I know is having a boy.  They are so much fun though. We are looking forward to going and seeing some friends that we haven't seen in a while.  Then tomorrow night our elementary school is having their annual Waggoner Round-up.  It is like a big carnival but western themed.  The kids love it.  I will be there selling game booth tickets so come by and say "Hi" if you are going. 

Sunday is church and then football.  Go Chargers!!!  Of course I will have my sweet Tyler in my arms during the game.  Sunday morning I will also be going into the hospital to get my bloodwork done.....YUCK........but it has to be done.  We are praying that all of my levels look great.

I just want to put out there that there are a lot of people really hurting right now and need our prayers.  I know of three right now whose hearts are breaking and they are barely hanging on.  If you could throw a quick prayer up for them that would be great.  They need strength to get through and hope.

Have a fantastic Friday everyone!!  Today is another gift from God and He is so Good!!  Thank you God for comfort, peace and hope.

Does your family have a sweet potato pie dish for Thanksgiving?  We do and it is so sweet and good!  Yum......I can't wait!

Good morning from Tyler!!!  He is waving "Hi" to everyone!  :)

Good morning!!  How is your week going??  Mine is going great.  I think I am busier then I have been in a long time.  I am so enjoying being back to work.  I couldn't ask for a better staff to work with and I love the kids.  My time with Tyler everyday is so precious to me also.  He is about 8 days old now and is such a joy to me.  I am still on cloud nine.  I had been told that when I became a grandparent that it is the best thing ever.  Everyone that told me that is so right!  Mike and I absolutely LOVE IT!!!

Jenna's check-up with the Dr. yesterday went great!  She is doing well.  Everyday that I see her she is getting along better.  That is what is such another joy to me also.  Seeing my beautiful daughter being a mom to Tyler.  She and Ryan are doing a wonderful job. They love that little guy to pieces!   So far Tyler has been doing great at night.  Let's just hope and pray it stays that way.  He is one content little baby.  So very muched loved!!!!!

I would like to thank everyone at First Christian Church for all of the prayers and support you have given to Ryan, Jenna and Tyler.  Thank you for bringing out meals to them everyday.  They appreciate that so much!  It is so nice to not have to worry about that while they are busy taking care of Tyler.

Thank you Diane Ming.  You are so sweet!!! 

I have a lot to do this morning so I better run.  Have a super Thursday!!  Today is another gift from God and He is so good!!!  Thank you God for your love and strength to get us through each day.

I am on a Thanksgiving food kick.  So tell me......mash potatos or stuffing??  We have both but if I had to choose one.... it would be stuffing.

Good morning!  I hadn't posted a picture of Lola in a long time and decided to take one of her last night.  I don't know what she thinks about me spending so much time with Tyler, but I make sure she gets some quality time too.  She is doing good.  The best dog I could of ever received when I was so sick.  Seriously, she is low maintainence.  Lola just always wants to be with me.  She had a little separation anxiety when I went back to work, but seems to have adjusted now.  Isn't she cute?  She is so sweet too.

Here is my Ty man.  He is doing his favorite activity right now......sleeping!  He is such a snuggly little guy.  I know my mom and dad can't wait to hold him when they come out next week for my sisters wedding.

Thank you all for the prayer requests yesterday.  I am praying!  Will you keep me in your prayers too?  I have blood work coming up and I am hoping things look good there.  I will let you know about it when it comes.  I don't have a scheduled PET scan or MRI brain scan until December.  Will you already be praying that the test results are great?  I feel good and know that God has healed me.  I am keeping HOPE!

Jenna is feeling so much better with each day.  I am taking her to the Dr. this afternoon for her check-up.  Tyler has been sleeping pretty good at night now for a couple of nights.  WooHooo!!

I want to wish my sweet friend Marga Cooley a very "Happy Birthday" today!!!  Have a fun day Marga!  ((HUGS))

Well I am running late this morning so I better run.  Have a wonderful Wednesday!  Today is another gift and God is so Good!!!  Thank you God for peace and comfort and HOPE!!!

Favorite pie at Thanksgiving????  If I had to choose one it would be pumpkin with whip cream.  But I like a lot of different pies.

Good morning!!!  Thanks for indulging me and letting me show you pics of my grandson.  I promise that the blog won't always be all about Tyler.....but I just can't help it........I want to share him with you all! 

I took this picture of him a couple of nights ago.  Those are Ryan and Jenna's hands holding him up.

Nanie and the newest San Diego Charger fan!  Finally got a pic of him awake!

Aunt Monica came down to see Tyler.  We are all ready to watch the game.

Ryan entertaining Tyler during half time.

Tyler telling everyone "TOUCHDOWN" San Diego Chargers!!!

All of our cheering during the game didn't bother him one bit.  He was so good during the whole game.  Jenna is still pretty sore but is getting much better everyday.  Tyler is still getting the night thing all worked out but had a great night of sleep the night before last.  He had a check up with his pediatrician yesterday and he is doing wonderful.

Wedding plans for my sister are coming along great.  She brought down my bridesmaid dress Sunday and I already got it into the tailor shop to be hemmed yesterday.  Will  be ready to go by next week.  Believe it or not Jenna has her dress already to go too.  And yes.....Tyler is in the wedding too.  Got his outfit already.   All the men have it so easy with Tuxes. 

I would like to ask you all to pray for a friend of mine that is going through a real rough time right now with life.  Could you pray for encouragement and wisdom and strength to get through this very diificult time in her life?  Also if you could keep my sister in your prayers for everything to go smooth for her and Gregg's wedding.  I really appreciate it!

I am praying faithfully for all of you who have asked for it.  If there are any new requests please e-mail me and let me know.  leslie@mgilbert.net  Our God is an awesome God and nothing is too much for Him.  I BELIEVE in the power of what prayer can do.....I am a walking miracle of it.

Have a terrific Tuesday!!  Today is another gift and God is so Good!!  Thank you God for healing me and for your powerful healing in others.

Are you more of a fan of Turkey or Ham at Thanksgiving???  We always have both and I like both.

Good morning!!!  How was your weekend?  We had a great weekend.  I have a few pictures here of Tyler in his Halloween costumes.  Poor thing is only a few days old so even the newborn costumes are still too big but we took pictures of him in them anyways.  He is such a good sleeper that it is hard to get a picture of him awake.  Didn't crop this picture yet but here he is surrounded with different pumpkins.

Love how it looks like he is holding the jack o latern here.

So cute.......but just a sleepy head.

There were lots of trick or treaters that night.  They were so darn cute in their costumes.  Mike and Ryan were the ones that passed out the candy.  I just couldn't put Tyler down to do it.  Oh I love snuggling with him!  We are all so very thankful for him.  Having a new baby in the family is awesome!

Tyler also watched his first Charger game with us yesterday.  He was in his Charger jersey too.  I took pics of that and will post those tomorrow.  Yeah.......Chargers beat the Raiders!!!!  Next week we are in New York to play the Giants.  Go Chargers!!!

Great talking to you last night Angel Linda!  Happy Birthday to your son today!

Now our family is focusing our attention not only on Tyler but on my sister too!   She is getting married in less then two weeks.  Oh there is soooooo much to do.  All good stuff though.  So looking forward to the wedding!!

Have a marvelous Monday and week!  Today is another gift and God is so Good!!!  Thank you God for your love, encouragement and support!!

Can you believe it is November already???  Time to start thinking about Thanksgiving already!!!  WOW!!  lol  Did you change your watches and clocks???
