Babies change a lot in 5 months ( 2 pics)

14 years ago

I don't think I've posted anything since before December when we moved near Houston to be closer to our kids and first grandchild. This is Elise who we are complete idiots about!

We gave her the swimsuit and cap for Valentine's. A girl can't start getting ready for swimsuit season too soon!

Thanks for looking.

Indoor Ensete from 6' to 17' in 1 and 1/2 months (pic)

Those enestes are amazing!!!!!! I bought one in october and It could bearely stand up. Now it is standing up as best as it can, but the leaves are reverting back to green and they arent growing very fast. It has been about 3 weeks since Ive seen a new leaf come up. lets say it looks a little pathetic. Bright side is it is one of the few plants not infested by bugs (I say about half have something eating it that has to be treated). Hopefully mine will pick up the pace during the summer. I still cant believe you live in a zone 4. I can understand beautiful plants outside, but inside too... wow, that takes a lot. Good thing you have high celings! That snow outside probably makes a good reflector of sunlight into your house too. Are you going to give them a head start inside, or chop them up in the spring so they can fit through the door easier? Good luck and keep up the great work! Hopefully one day mine will at least slightly resemble that!! :)

Gorgeous photos. I love living in CT, particularly in the Fall. Every day has just been so lovely. Lindac - Colonel Prescott is a relative of yours?? No effing way! Seriously, not only am I a history geek, but his name is in one of my favorite Schoolhouse Rocks! Now, at famous Bunker Hill, Even though we lost, it was quite a thrill, The rebel Colonel Prescott proved he was wise; Outnumbered and low on ammunition As the British stormed his position He said, "Hold your fire till you see the whites of their eyes!" Wow, just wow. Now you all know what a dork I am (as if you didn't already) AM

I have given the artisan bread book to so many friends as gifts... pretty cool, huh? Do you guys have a special container to keep the dough in in the fridge? I bought one of the ones they recommended, but there's no convenient way to keep the lid ajar. I would love to see other people's solutions! I have not made the bread since we moved into this house (Halloween) because the fridge was so small. I am a little nervous that my new CD FD Jenn Air won't have enough room, either! (Never had a CD fridge before.)

Gorgeous piece Tom!! You should be very proud-I'm sure it will be treasured! Can I give you a tip? We have a dresser that has been passed down the generations. We got name plates engraved with the babies name and birthday and lined them up in order of use on the inside of one door. My daughters are numbers 6 and 7! 3 generations and hopefully my girls can use it one day and continue the tradition! Might be nice if you could do something like that too?

You're right about how quickly they change. She's a real cutie pie. I'm glad you now live close enough to see her often.

bbabers, what a beautiful little girl. Hubby and I did the very same, we are in our seventies and have our first grands, little girl 2 and boy 5 months old. we packed up and moved to be close to them We have been married 50 years and didn't want to lose a minutes time away from them. We took one to the doctor today and the doctor was telling us his family had done the same thing, moved to be near grands. . Where did you find that swim hat. Our two year old has been taking swimming lesson since November, would love to get a swim hat for her. Isn't it wonderful to be idiots over these sweet faces.

bbabers, thank you so much for posting the site. There was one little itty bitty problem, there is no way that I can just order the two items. Already tagged 4 items and called daughter and told her to look at the site. That is a wonderful site for beautiful things for our cuties. You all have lots of fun with you sweetness. Please continue to post pictures. I plead old age , not being able to post pictures.

hallngarden, you will be in REAL trouble if you go to one of their stores. They are truly grandmother places. It reminds me of the saying that grandparents carry wallets with pictures of their grandchildren in them where their money used to be. Enjoy!!!!

Thanks for showcasing the new Esther Williams. Is there still red hair under that cap? (I see we are saving tons of money by having only a grandSON.)

chisue, yes there's definitely red hair under that cap. It's really starting to come in and showing a little curl. She can't keep her hands out of it! We are keeping her next week. I'll try to get a picture that shows her hair.

Thanks everyone for taking time to make such nice comments.
