Sedona Jane

Presenting Miss Sedona Jane, 6lbs, 13oz, 20 inches long, born late Friday night….

I got to hold her for quite a while as she slept.  Such a sweet little girl.  And she’s got hair!  And blue eyes!  It was all so familiar:  the “football hold”, the pillows on each side, under the knees, on the lap, behind the head, the trying a few times before she got on just right, hobbling to the bathroom, incision hurting when you laugh.  Ah yes, I remember it well. 

We took them a big bouquet (thank you, Paul’s Flowers!) of lots of different kinds of pink flowers with one white rose to symbolize Gerome.  They were really happy to see us, and we were so happy for them.  Now, to keep praying for Suzanne’s “little bean”….

Stashbuster WIP

Must.  Use.  The.  Remaining.  Petro.  Must.  Make.  Room.  For.  Fabulous.  Yarn.  From.  Italia.

In case you can’t tell, it’s a log cabin dog blanket.  Or it could be to line the box for the feral cats MarkyMark & Bobcat rescue.  Whatever.  Actually, the cream and the green are a cotton/rayon blend, but the white and the blue are horrible polyester that does NOT feel happy in my hands.  Eh, the furballs won’t know the difference.  I was originally just going to use the cream and green, but it wasn’t nearly big enough for Sammy, and I ran out of green before I could do the last green rectangle, hence the weirdo color scheme.  Like I said, the animals won’t know the difference.

J is for Jolly Juveniles…

J is for the Jolly Juveniles in my family.  [NOTE:  I did not take any of these pictures myself, so I take no responsibility for the photo quality.]

And a couple of representative videos of Thing One and Thing Two.  Enjoy….

P.S.  Considering WHERE Thing Two was when she shot that video, I’m lucky the subject matter isn’t grosser…

Joe’s Mom

Well, Joe’s mom Ramona passed away at 8:30 this morning.  Understandably, Erica sounded wrung out when she called me around 11:30 to let me know.  Please keep Joe’s dad — also named Joe — and the rest of their family in your prayers.
