Welcome Mari!

May was an eventful month for our family...


A new granddaughter...


a vacation...



and a nasty virus (I'm better now!).

Oh, Baby - update!

It's a GIRL! The ultrasound clearly showed her attributes for a few seconds before she curled up in a ball as if to say, "How rude!" LOL! Mommy was so excited that she had to go buy something pink right away!

Only one person guessed correctly - and he doesn't scrap! So to celebrate our wee lassie, I created this wordart freebie for all of you (hmmm - this could be a new kit in the works!). Click on the image to download it.

Oh, Baby!

I'm gonna be a Gran, again! We are all really excited and 8-yr old Isabel can't wait to be a big sister!

The wee one is due to arrive in early May, so how about a Baby Pool to pass the time! Guess the following:

- boy or girl
- date*
- time of day (hour, minute, am or pm)
- weight
- height

(* it'll probably be a c-section but you never know!)

The winner gets a fun prize - but only Gran knows what it is! ;-) There will also be a special bonus prize given to a randomly chosen player when we find out if the bairn is a lad or lassy! Add your guess in a comment and remember to include your e-mail address so I can let you know if you're a winner!
