Babies are so special!

Hi there.  I guess some of you got my blog before I corrected my oops, when I put January 18 instead of February 18 as the birth day of our newest little grandson.  It is corrected, but apparently not before being sent out.  Sorry.  The time is flying by so quickly that I have a hard time realizing it is February, and almost March!!

Here is a new picture of Dominick, as well as a different one of Bobby, and his parents, Steven (my son), and his sweet wife Meli. (PS, I took the photos off for now. Some updated ones will come later.)

Everyone have a great week!

Grandbaby #19 born on February 18, 2010!

Lots of wonderful things happening this week!  On Thursday, February 18, 2010, our son Cody and his wife Sami had a little boy (their 3rd child--now they have a boy, girl, and a boy).  He was just a week or so early.  He weighed 5 lbs 10 oz and was 18 1/2 inches long. They are naming him Dominick James Harrison.  We hope to get to Salt Lake to see him before long.  We'd planned to go out for his C-section delivery on the 26th, but it became necessary for him to be delivered sooner.  So glad he's here, safe and sound.  Mom and baby are doing well.  Woo Hoo!! Grandchild #19 for us!  Congratulations, Cody and Sam!

Grandson Bobby Blessed and Named on Valentine's Day :)

Our sweet little grandson, Robert Asael Derricott, "Bobby", was blessed and named by his father Steven Keith Derricott in their ward in Taylorsville yesterday, February 14, 2010. He has a very special name.  Robert, for his mother's father who passed away a few months before Steve and Meli got married, and Asael for his dad's grandpa, Ace (Asael) Derricott.  It is an honorable name, and he is an adorable little boy.  We are so thankful to have him in our family.


After church, Steve and Meli hosted a luncheon at their house, where lots of friends and family came to celebrate with them.  It was a really nice day.

Just a short hello

Dear Blog,

Not much to say, just "Hello" to anyone who might be reading this. I've applied for, and passed the test for, becoming a Census taker for the 2010 Census.  I need the money.  It's part time, and for a short duration, maybe 2 months or so.  Should find out something in March, whether they are interested in hiring me or not.  I'm hoping to pay a little on some bills, put away a little in savings, since we have a hard time getting from one payday to the next, so it helps to have a little cushion, and we don't right now.  Everyone I know is struggling financially.  It's scary!!

My son Michael had hernia surgery today.  He's pretty sore, and just a little goofy from the pain meds, which also make him a little sick.  Hope ya get better quickly, son.

Got my new driver's license a couple of days ago.  Sure a lot easier here in Vernal than what I've been reading about in Salt Lake!  Just walked right in, filled out the paper work, got my picture taken, looked at the eye test thingy, and that was it.  Oh...and paid $25.  Should get my new one in the mail in a few weeks.

Still have a great job, and since I have to work tomorrow (actually, today since it's after 1 am.) I guess I'd better get to bed so I can get to work on time. 

Sure would love to hear from anyone who might read this rambling entry!  Have a nice day!
