darrellandmelissa Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 I just finished and put pics in the team builders blog of my Orchid. I will be taking a short break from minis this month, other then completing the Oct. swap. I have some baby items I need to sew up before my daughters baby shower. She is going in on the 18th for an aditional ultrasound specifically to hopefulkly find out what sex it is. If the baby olny wants to show the bottom of it's tiny feet again then it will just be a suprise. I plasn on sewing up a few items of baby clothing, some burp cloths amd other small items to go into a basket. If she finds out the sex of the bay then I will make a crib set as well. If not the crib set will wait untill the child is born. Now don't I sould like an excited grandma rofl. after telling ALL my kids not to bring any babys around me, now i am waiting with anticipation. My does reality have a way with changing our opinions. Melissa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Missymew Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 Melissa - What a lucky grandchild to have you for a grandmother. Will you show photos of the clothing and other baby things that you sew. I'd love to see them. A little mini person ... how exciting for you. -Susanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Missymew Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 Trinity is laying on the desk beside the computer keyboard, and she's quite fascinated with the Halloween cat that I've included with my post. The flashing eyes have caught her attention. Trinity is black BTW. -Susanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

havanaholly Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 Oh, Melissa, how exciting! DS#1 & his wife have tried again, but after last time I'll defer making comment on their success or lack of it. I have been optomistically knitting & crocheting for her, "just in case". Do let us know if Whozis decides to to bare all, so to speak, and lets everyone know which it'll be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IAK Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 Congrats on becoming a Grandma. I just love my little grandsons. They are the BEST They call me GRAMS.

I hope you enjoy your mini break, and I wish good luck for the sonogram. Hopefully, he or she won't be so shy this time.
