You're Calling Him WHAT?

Baby has a name.  Jasper.  I kicked and grumbled and opposed the parents choice of a name until I was out of breath.  Then I conceded and now...  
when I hear the name I see my tiny Christmas angel (Below)  


We can't wait for Jasper to come home from the hospital and be a part of the family.  But in the meantime his brother Jake is taking care of business.



Dear Diary,  I am not dead.  Just exhausted.  This new Christmas toy got the best of me and I am resting up.  Tomorrow, revenge!  Gracie.

  1. He is mighty cute, whatever they call him:) My youngest Grandson's name is Maverick! When they named him that, it sounded strange... now that is just who he is! Jasper is precious! Congrats to you dear Bobbi! HUGS!

  4. "Jasper is mentioned in the Old and New Testaments of the Bible. In Exodus, the Lord tells Moses to have a sacred garment for priests of Israel made, decorated with precious stones, one of which is jasper. In Revelations, jasper is compared to the "Face of God" and the building material of the brilliant, beautiful walls of the New Jerusalem. Jasper is the foundation stone of the church, symbolizing eternal faith." The meaning of this stone is power, protection, and healing, as well. Hope this helps. Is Gracie tired cause she can't destroy the toy? Today on Facebook I saw the hilarious side of Gary!

  8. Jasper is so cute and cuddly and would be cute and cuddly by any name. Of course, you know that already, Gracie! Time to convince you Mom!

    May you have peace, health, and happiness in the coming year. You certainly deserve it.

  16. Hi Gracie and Bobbi, Jasper is one little cutie to be sure! I know with all the love you give him, he will grown so quickly. I have to tell you Gracie that I'm reading your book and have found many ways your mom and I are alike; also found a couple of ways you and Hunter are alike. I've laughed and cried; had to take a break this afternoon cause I got sad reading about PopPop.
    Have a warm evening and stay out of trouble. Congrat's on the new grandbaby too.

  21. Well, Jasper is a unique name and at least it will be his own to own. Won't be 4 other Jaspers in kindergarten will there? I probably would have kicked and screamed too, but our children have a way of naming their children no matter our opinions... *sigh* Welcome to the world, Jasper! xox
