She’s Here!

 I spent a week in California taking care of my grandson for my son and his wife. He loves to be silly when waking up from a nap.

 My newest granddaughter, Eleanor Sophie was born March 9th. She was 5 lbs, 14 oz. I got to meet her on Monday.

I returned home on Wednesday. While I was in CA, I was able to work on some of my EPP “blocks” when my grandson napped or was in daycare. I also worked on them on the plane each way. I’ve definitely made some progress with them. 

Since I’ve been home, I am concentrating on finishing the birth announcement. I’ve been working on the squirrel. 

When this is completed I will bring it with me on my next CA trip and stop at the same framer in San Diego that did my grandson’s birth announcement.

I finished reading The Women by Kristin Hannah while I was away. 

This is a powerful story about the US women who served in the Vietnam War. I didn't want to put this book down. I always find Kristin Hannah's books easy and interesting to read.

It is starting to feel a little like Spring here in NY. My crocuses are in bloom.

There seems to be more this year than usual....or the bunnies haven't eaten them yet. There are a whole lot of daffodils growing also.

That’s all for now. I was away from home for a week and now I am trying to get back to a normal routine again. My daughter and her family will be visiting next weekend so that routine will be short lived. 

I will be joining Kathy for some Slow Sunday Stitching and Frederique at the Quilting Patch. Make yourself some tea or coffee and pop on over to their sites to see what other bloggers are stitching. 

Thanks for stopping by!
