Spring Break Part 2

While PawPaw and DeeDee were here for the week, mom and I took the girls to the Babyland General Hospital where the Cabbage Patch Dolls are born:

 

  
A doctor comes out periodically to delivery a cabbage patch baby from the cabbage patch tree and the audience names the baby.  Two boys were born while we were there:
 This doll was named Junior Joseph . . . bless his heart : )
 After the doctor checked him out everyone got to hold him:

 
 DeeDee let the girls pick out a doll.  Emily picked hers out because the doll's name was Emily.  The doll looked a lot like her too.  I helped Abigail pick out a doll that looked like the cabbage patch dolls I remember as a child with yarn for hair.  Her doll's name was Jewel but Abigail decided to name her Abigail:
 
 The doctor checked their dolls out for them while we watched thru the nursery window:


 A clean bill of health!



 A fun day!
 We spent the rest of the week playing at the house while I worked.  Abigail spent a lot of time tracing letters in this book and did a really great job:
 On Friday night Joe and I went to dinner while the grandparents kept the girls.  We had dinner and then ice cream.  We wanted to go see a movie and drove around to several theaters but there wasn't anything good playing.  But we enjoyed our night out!

Joe's mom had a back injury from a car wreck a couple of weeks ago so Joe went to Auburn on Saturday and his mom had surgery Sunday in Columbus.  We are praying for a quick recovery for Grandma.
