Cuties!

I find that November is a tricky time of year to come up with appropriate crafts to make at our little Glanworth library. Thanksgiving and Halloween are over, and I like to wait until December to start making Christmas crafts. I was thumbing through my Jumbo Book of Easy Crafts and decided that we could make construction-paper springy caterpillars. The kids had lots of fun. They are all so cute, the caterpillars, too!

And speaking of cutie-pies, how about this little guy?

He doesn't have to do a single thing to make us sigh with delight. 

He just has to be our little Leo.

All the best,

Judy Ann

Welcome!

It has been a completely magical 24 hours! Everything has changed for the better with one little name, just three letters, Leo! Oh my goodness! Our hearts are filled with gratitude and awe!

His mommy (with her new, pretty, MOM necklace) 

can't stop beaming and crying tears of joy!

Daddy has already figured out how Leo likes to be swaddled.

Grandpa cannot stop grinning!

And Grandma coaxed a smile out of Leo already! 

He's only 16 hours old in this photo!

The hospital chaplain stopped by and gave Leo a blessing. 

It was a perfect moment and it made us all teary...

...especially Mommy.

Our little Leo likes his super-soft blue cap. 

(I just knew we were going to need the blue one!)

He may not always be this snuggly, content, tiny and perfect, 

but he will always be treasured and loved. 

I miss him already and can't wait to see him again.

Welcome, little Leo, to this amazing, huge, busy, loving, family!

All the best,

Judy Ann
