Meet Jacob James Rodriguez


We finally got to meet Jacob today after many hours of waiting in the hospital. He weighed 7 lbs. 7 oz and was 19 1/2 inches long. He was born at 8:52 tonight. This picture is of Jacob at about 2 min. old. Mother and baby are doing fine, as well as the Dad!! It was a little nerve racking for a little while there...there were a few complications, but everything worked out great. He is already so sweet!! This is just a preview....don't worry I will have many more pictures to come!! :)

Random Picture Post

4 Little Men has a random picture post every Saturday. Today it's the 3rd folder and the first thing you see brown. That was a hard one. I had to go to several folders before I found something brown.

We were out in the country going to look at a house and we saw these deer, so we stopped and took pictures. This is only a few of the ones we saw. I think there were about 20 altogether.

Another Happy Birthday!!




Today is my Mother's birthday. I won't say how old she is, even though I'm sure she would tell you herself. She is a very kind, and loving person. She always puts her family first no matter what. She loves to play on the computer and she even has a Myspace, a Facebook, a Twitter and a blog among other things. She loves her sorority and she is on the entertainment committee that puts on the 4th of July activities each year.

Last year at this time, my sisters and my daughters took her to Las Vegas for her birthday. We had a blast and had planned on doing again this year. It didn't work out for us this time, but we will go back soon.

Spring Break is Almost Over

Sprink Break is half over. It started out all right but now is not so good. First of all the E kids are staying with their Dad during spring break and Bailey is out of town, so it's been really quiet around here.

On Sunday night, my foot started hurting like I had sprained it or something, but it wasn't too bad. Monday I got up and did a lot of things around the house and ran some errands at places that I'm not here for during business hours...such as the bank, post office, pharmacy. I decided that I was going to start walking, so I went to the park with my i-pod and walked for 30 min. My foot hurt a little but not any worse than it had before. Tuesday, I finished up washing and cleaning, hoping to get to go to Wichita for Lacy's baby, but as of right now, he is still not here..oh, well! I went walking Tuesday and Wednesday, but after I got done Wednesday, my foot was really hurting. And to make things worse, my throat started getting sore and by this morning, I couldn't walk or talk....and I really like doing those things!!

Thank goodness for my DVR!! Since I can't do much but sit around, I've gotten caught up on some of my shows on my DVR. I always record Criminal Minds, and all of the Law and Orders. I also record DWTS and The Celebrity Apprentice. And I love March Madness!! So things could be a lot worse for me...actually this is a pretty good spring break....it's all in how you look at it I guess!!

But, I'm not writing this to get sympathy from anyone. These are just minor inconveniences that will soon be gone. I've been reading 98 Minutes in Heaven and after reading what that poor man went through, my problems are nothing. If you haven't read that book, I would highly recommend it. My daughter-in-law bought an autographed copy for me when the author came and spoke at church. I'll be glad to loan it out if anyone wants to read it.

I've gotten a lot of rest this week.....I guess that's a good thing. When school starts back and Lacy finally has the baby, I'm afraid my rest is over!!!!

Happy Birthday!!



I would like to wish my niece Carli a happy birthday. For those of you that know her, you know that 'shy' is never a word you use to describe Carli. Smart, outgoing, friendly...you can use those words, but shy....never!! Therefore, she won't be the least bit embarrassed by some of the following pictures of her... and if she is embarrassed.....oh, well. It's my job as her FAVORITE aunt to embarrass her!!
