Gifts from GREAT Grandma!

A few days ago I received a wonderful gift in the mail from my Grandma in Alberta. (Baby's GREAT Grandma!!!)
She sent this beautiful lacy pink set, as well as a minty green sweater and blanket.

This picture shows the colour pretty well but hides the amazing detail work....



so I'm also posting This picture which is a little dark, but shows how much work went into making it!!!



THANK YOU GRANDMA!!! :-D

A Little Snow?

Our first snowfall of the season began last night.
At 3 o'clock this afternoon our neighbourhood was unrecognizable beneath all the white stuff.
Here's a shot of our backyard.....



and out our front window.....



We've accumulated at LEAST a foot of snow so far....And it's STILL snowing.... a LOT.
Charlie seems to be enjoying all the snow... from INSIDE anyway.



Needless to say it has inspired thoughts of Christmas. :-)
I couldn't resist......up went the tree!

Quick Post

Just a quick post to let everyone know that everything is fine. :-)
Haven't posted in a while, I know.
The baby's room is coming along nicely. My Dad has been over at my house every week patching, sanding, priming, and now painting. (second coat goes on this weekend) The colour is Beautiful! It's a really nice minty green. I think it's going to look awesome.
Anyway, here's a super-annoying glittery picture that i got the link to from Ej's blog. Enjoy! :-)

It's a GIRL!!!

Had my doctor's appointment yesterday. He said that everything is progressing normally, that baby seems healthy and that she will probably be a GIRL!!! :-D
I asked him what "probably" meant and he said that if they are more than 80% sure then they say "probably", otherwise they say "unsure". He said it was safe for me to start buying pink things. :-)
I'm so excited!!! I've always imagined having a little girl. Yay! :-D
