Thinking BABY!!

 I'm thinking BABY! oh not me--but GREAT grandbaby!  It feels like that should make me OLD! that we are having a great grandbaby in our family--our grandson and his wife are expecting--so every time we see each other there are photos of the 'baby to be'!  They are so proud of their little 'bean' in the belly--but quite frankly, I need to stare a long time to make out anything--I'm sure over time as the little dude (and yes, it's a boy!) grows, the sonogram will appear to be more apparent to me!

So, I'm thinking baby things--I already have a quilt for the little tyke--his Name will be Waylon Michael--I hope he'll like being a cowboy--anyway.  I made the quilt many moons ago and decided it would be for the first grand child--but I just couldn't let go of my precious work--now, it's time to let it gooooooooooooooo-oh so hard!!

The other day this sweet little grand-daughter asked me if I had ever heard of cloth diapers!!  Oh, Lordy--that's all we ever used--those cloth diapers were so absorptive--you could use them for burp cloths, drying heads and tears, and of course, keeping those tiny hinny's dry and clean!  She said she couldn't fathom cleaning poop from a cloth diaper--I didn't tell her--I didn't relish it either but it was what it was and you get used it.  there will come a day when she'll be cleaning a lot more unsavory stuff from her young one!  Stay tuned for that adventure!!

What else will a baby need that a Great grandmother could give--besides lots of love and kisses?

Here's a handy burp cloth--just 'cause she won't have cloth diaper handy!
25 things for baby-- I skipped over all the cute girlie stuff--
oh so many things they'll need for that bundle of joy. 
 
Can I find a cowboy hat and boots?

Beginnings of New Year Ideas

I'm already thinking about the new year and new beginnings--2024 was a lost year as far as new quilt starts--there was not a one began. ...
