...by family!
Wednesday night our daughter and son-in-law came in from Oklahoma City, bringing their son Ephraim with them, of course. My mother-in-law came out from Bentonville to stay with us, so we have much more than our normal quiet household of two aging baby boomers.
We baby-sat Ephraim last night while the kids went off to Eureka Springs for a belated anniversary celebration and time away. They'll just be gone a night, coming back late today. Sara has high school class reunion over the weekend. So they will stay till Sunday or Monday.
Ephraim was a delight last night. Now a year and two weeks old, he's not quite walking yet but does an amazingly fast crawl. We had baby-proofed the house somewhat, and got a bunch of toys out to keep him busy. It worked, and he didn't spend too much time trying to get where he shouldn't. He is a little too interested in the lap-top computer, but understands "no" and stops when you tell him to. He was kind of fussy when we put him to bed, and Lynda got him up for a late night snack. After that he was fine and we didn't hear a peep out of him. Well, at 4:00 AM he let out a single cry, but we left him alone and he went back to sleep.
I got some great pictures of him last night. I'll try to get them downloaded tonight and added to this post, and make another out of them.
I'm afraid I didn't get much writing done over the last two days.
