Oh Baby....Soon I'll Be Singing.....Leaving On A Jet Plane.....

I've been busy - some shopping, some packing....

And a  lot of getting things done at work so I can miss some time away......

Why have I been doing all these things???


Because of this little bundle of contentment......

My blogging buddies, meet my first grandchild.
I can hardly wait to get my hands on her but I'll have to wait a bit longer - when I do get my hands on her it will involve two airplanes and 21 hours.....that's if everything is on time.

So, what's that saying? Through the woods to Grandmother's house we go? Well, this is backwards....three airports and a couple of planes and several long hours to Grandchild's house we go. It will be a wonderful adventure and I plan to tell her when she's older how excited we were to go see her.

The fairy hat - yup, that's Grandma's knitting - I plan to keep her well stocked with fairy hats...along with any other hats her parents would like.

She's just home from the hospital in the picture with E.T.......looking at her Dad like "I know you, I've heard you before"....
Have you ever seen the movie E.T.???? It was such a sweet movie, we'll be watching it together someday Baby Z...I think Grandma is about to have a passport with lots of stamps because distance won't keep us apart.

I've also enjoyed the Flavor of the Month this week......it was a TOTAL WINNER!!!!

Tomorrow I'll post pictures of the ice cream along with the Angel Lemon Pie.
Remember I said the pie takes several hours before you could eat it? Well, my life got side tracked and I plan to get up early in the morning to prepare the pie. Either way, I'll post the recipe in the morning. No reason you should have to wait because I've been busy buying baby clothes.
I'm also hoping that if I don't get around to making this recipe you'll give it a try and then tell me if it's a good one.
The person who gave it to me said her company at Easter raved about how it melted in your mouth. We'll see if her "company" were being polite or if this is truely a "rave about pie". 

See you soon.....
