Did I happen to mention......

....that Jonathan and Jill had their first ultrasound and they were told that Baby Dease has an 80% chance of being a GIRL!!!!
A reasonable Grandmother to be would do the math and say "well, it could STILL be a BOY". But who wants to be REASONABLE when you could be SHOPPING instead!!!! So all of this "girlie" goodness came by UPS this week.
But that can't be enough....so off to Joanne's I went to pick up yards and yards of pink joy!!! I am picturing quilts and dresses and even baby shoes ( lots of good patterns on the internet). I am one ambitious Grandma, and I have to keep busy doing something til March!
Oh....did I mention the flannels???? Well, had to have LOTS of that too. After all this baby needs to be wrapped in a LOT of softness along with lots of love. The bottom flannel I got even more of. Our Jilly loves elephants, so maybe a Mother/Daughter pajama set????
Someday I dream of our little Clare ( yes...she already has a name, and I LOVE it) sitting like this and enjoying every minute of my teaching her how to make things by hand, and given from the heart. That is what I am planning to do for the next few months.
Just know little Clare that you are already loved to the MAX.....and thanks for the sweet wave you gave ( even though your Momma said it was a punch) while you were being filmed on the Ultrasound. I am waving right back at you. XXX Grandma

I loooove pink...I am crocheting a baby blanket as we speak, but throwing in both pink and blue...don't say anything yet since this is a new pattern for me and it depends how it turns out!!:) Otherwise, I'll go back to my stand by of the V-stitch pattern!!
