Remember those three babies? The ones due in late September, October, and December? Well, October was born this morning!
So, the pressure's on. So, two problems:
First, the BSJ for a girl (being red and pink and such) is going to be very small. This baby is smallish, so that's a good thing. But how big will she be by the time she can wear a wool sweater?
Second, this is the mother that says her child will have no contact with any animals for the first year of her life. So, does that mean that an object from a house with ... er, pugs ... will be unacceptable?
Or is it just smarter to send an antiseptic gift card?
(And pugs don't know they're animals ... so, do they even count?)
Anyway, and more to the point, my sister Debbie's a grandma for the first time! Woo hoo! Little Isabelle Christine will have the best grandma ever!

So glad to see you're back on the printed page! Have missed your blogs mightily. I so want to see these compiled into a journal/book. Your talent for description and word-smithing is superb and should be shared by a larger audience. Maybe we'll see you on stage at the Book Festival one of these days.
Best!!

She's so cute! It would be handy to have an assortment of babies close by to try one some of these garments we're producing so we'll know if we have the size right.
