Cloie Anne arrived on Tuesday to my little sister Susie. 7 lbs, 4 oz and a ton of black hair. You may remember I posted the baby shower I had for my Sis on a tablescape thursday. Mom and daughter and Dad are doing great.
She was hungry and sleepy today when I visited so the pics aren't the greatest but she is a beauty!
This little gal will join her two older sisters, Kristin 14 and Noel 12 and her two older brothers, Justin 16 and Ben 9, plus my sister is a full time art teacher to middle school kids. She is taking a 1 year leave of absence which I think she will need. (that may be the understatement of the year) This is her husband's 1st baby(2nd marriage for Susie) and she had her tubes tied. Cloie is a in-vitro baby. Susie knew how much he wanted a child and went through a lot to get Cloie here. This was also her 5th C-section. Ouch! Cloie will join 24 nieces and nephews and some very excited grandparents! This is her husband's parents first grandchild. They are overjoyed!
Now, all you southern gals with your beautiful trees, flowers and lawns don't laugh! But I was so excited to see this today. It was a lovely 74 degrees and sunny! The trees are budding and green things are coming through the ground! Hooray! Have a Wonderful Week-end. Cindy

ReplyDeleteOh Cindy! What a sweetie! I remember your shower. Congratulations to your whole family. I'm glad your sister is taking some time off - she definitely deserves it!!! And I'm sure her older children take lots of her time, too!!! What a pretty name! One of my daughters middle names is Anne with an E (like the Anne of Green Gables).
ReplyDeleteSo glad you told me to come over because I am taking the day off to prepare for a porch party and my and my next door neighbor's house for about 90 people!!!! What have we gotten into!!!!!!! I know it will be fun, but now it the work part. Love to your new addition! :D Jewel
Cindy, Your sister and the baby are beautiful. She does have a beautiful head of hair. I am so happy for your sis & her hubby to have a baby together. What a blessing!!
ReplyDeleteI love seeing your plants popping their heads out of the ground. That's about how far along mine are, too!! But, just think in a couple of weeks our yards will be beautiful!!
Luv Ya! Terrie
Hi Cindy...

Girl, I AM excited for you and your little green plants popping through that ground!!! I can completely relate!!! We have really been getting the rain the last couple of days here in Colorado...I am hoping that it will green things up! I'm watching for signs of Spring as well, my friend! Sheeeshhh...these southern gals with their bloomin' flowers already...wink!
Warmest wishes,
Chari
What a beauty, blessing, and miracle all rolled into one! With all those older sibs she doesn't have a chance at not being spoiled!!! Congratulations to all!
ReplyDeleteCloie is gorgeous! Oh, congratulations to your whole family on the addition of this precious life. Your sister looks so serene and content with her baby; those first days with a newborn are so precious. How exciting!!!
ReplyDeleteCloie herself is a beauty; talk about looking serene, as if she knows she's the center of the universe, and that's Ok with her!
Thank you so much, Cindy, for your comments on my "staging" post. I can't tell you how much the support from you and others on this means to me; I'm ready to get back in the "it's my house and I'll do it my way" groove!
(Love the wallpaper story -- how frustrating!)

Good Morning, my friend! How is that sweet baby girl doing? I bet grandma can't keep her hands off of her. Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteHugs, Terrie
GM dear friend...thank you so much for coming by..I'm glad you liked my little tea cup lamp girl..they are so easy to make and one of my best selling items in my business..The Victorian shades I make are not selling like they use to..but girl the materials that go into them are so expensive the glass beads are a $1.10 an inch and if you have a shade thats 80 inches around its $88.00 just for the beads..you can have as much as $200.00 just in your materials and people scream if you want $250.00 for them...it takes me about 12-16 hours to make one...I sew them all my hand no glue...so I really am working for only around $2.00 an hour ha ha!! that don't even pay for the band aids I need for the needle holes in my fingers ha ha!! May you have a great weekend dear friend..and Good luck I hope you win..I would love to send that lamp to one of the best in bloggerville..Hugs and smiles Gl♥ria

Congrats on your new niece! She is absolutely beautiful. It sounds like she will have plenty of loving family members all around her which is so wonderful. There is nothing like snuggling a new baby. Enjoy the new little addition to your family!
