Baby will be warm

We are so blessed with people who bless us with their gifts. This weekend not only did julie go to a shower and received beautiful handmade quilts, but Dad helped Randy with the bathroom project and painted the baby's room. By the end of the weekend, everyone was tired but there was a great sense of completion.

Oh, the days of yesteryear

We were looking at some old pictures from a couple of years ago. We both look fit and skinny. Maybe again one day.....

Future Grandparents visit

Over Presidents' Weekend, my parents came for a nice visit. With them they brought with them Baby's new "corvette" stroller. Randy's mom was also in on the gift, purchasing the infant car seat that snaps in to the stroller. The whole contraption is very cool and can be adjusted for many different stages of life. We had fun playing with all the things this system can do! Randy marveled at the engineering behind such a collapsable four wheeled baby transporter.
Along with the gift, we played Bridge a couple of nights! Randy and I are getting better but it does take lots of practice to play with experienced players.

Nesting projects

As mentioned in earlier posts, Randy and I have been nesting differently. While I have been making quilts, Randy has been redoing the bathroom. Both projects are getting closer, but have had their obstacles. My sewing machine stopped sewing straight and started dropping stitches as I was attaching the binding. So, the puppy dog quilt will have a hand stitched binding sewed onto the edges.
On the bathroom front, Randy has encountered some tedious tiling which requires lots of cutting and piecing and fussing. Last weekend, he did finish the shower. The next step is to place the tile floor in. Both projects will be done in due time. We are just hoping they are finished before May.
