Me and My Grandkids




I know that every grandparent says that they have the cutest, smartest, and best behaved granchildren and I think THEY are exaggerating because I know I have the cutest, smartest, and best behaved grandchildren!! Let me introduce them to you....Haili was my first grandchild. She was born during a very interesting time of my life as I was just diagnosed with breast cancer and I wasn't sure I would be around to spoil the grandchildren that I wanted to have in my life so much. Haili, nicknamed Haili Boo because she was born near Halloween, and I became instant best friends. Some of our favorite things to do were to go to the Deseret Industries to find "treasures", sleep overs where I could tell her a story before going to sleep, going to eat at McDonalds and just hanging out. When Haili was around two years old her mother, Amber, married a very nice man to be Haili's new father...his name is Leo Gonzalez and he blessed our family with three more grandchildren. Stephanie and Elizabeth who are identical twins (Elizabeth has a freckle near her left eye and that is how I tell them apart) and Michael. These three children are totally mine too. Leo and Amber have had two children together Brandon (nicknamed Beezer) and Mason. The Gonzalez family is quite a family and I love each one of them. Wait, we aren't finished yet...I have a son named Ryan that married Rachel and together they blessed our family with twins named Holland and Ethan. Holland decided she wanted to come to earth a little early so she took her little brother by the hand and decided 6 weeks early that they were going to join the family. Surprisingly Holland was very ready for her new life but Ethan struggled some in the beginning but you would never know that now! Did I tell you how much I love my grandkids?? I do!!!
