New baby

Here I am again.   And this time I am not late...well at least not very!
Some time ago a young couple moved into the house across the street from Mom and Dad.  Mom and Dad got to the point that they were calling them their other kids and keeping tabs on them. Well, they just had a brand new baby boy.  Since Momma died, the couple have reversed roles and are keeping tabs on Dad.  Since they are being "my eyes and ears" so to speak, I decided to get a quilt finished for the baby.  A week or so ago, I went over to do a few things for Dad and to present the quilt to them.  I think they liked it. Christy just kept saying..."You made this....by hand?" Yes, with a lot of help from my sewing machine.





And here's the baby!........


He is a tiny little thing but perfectly healthy. He was early and only 5 pounds. None of my children were ever that small!
