There’s No Place Like Home
My new granddaughter, Leilah Nicole, came home from the hospital today. She’s been through quite a traumatic event in the last couple of days with mommy’s body ousting her from her warm and cozy little woom and shoving her out into the world. But she’s dealt with it amazingly w[...]
Dear Leilah – 4:07 AM
You’re here! And you’re adorable! You got here at 3:33 AM on January 14th. Mommy did an awesome job and barely made a noise the whole time you were being born. When mommy was ready to push, Nurse Shannon called the doctor and told mommy to hold on. But she didn’t t[...]

Quick as a Wink
Two quick pieces of news on my two granddaughters. Seems Mikayla lost her second tooth last week when she was with dad. Not sure how she’ll eat an apple right now, but the options for straw usage are awesome! Looks like my second granddaughter, Leilah Nicole, is eminent. Kelly was s[...]
December Showers
The baby shower to celebrate the impending birth of my next granddaugher, Leilah Nicole, was a resounding success. We had some GREAT food (of course!) and I had almost 30 people ensconced in my little “cottage”. A good time was had by all. The cake was provided by Kelly’[...]
A Birth and a Death
Today I’m providing a venue for my youngest daughter and her husband’s baby shower to celebrate the arrival of my next granddaughter, Leilah Nicole. My oldest daughter is hostessing the shower but at the time the party was planned she was living in a 900 sq foot apartment with a room m[...]
