Addison Lou is 5 months old today and some good news!

My little grand-daughter Addison Lou, is 5 months old today!  She has brought so much joy into our lives.
Here she is looking like a little doll baby.  Her Mommy gave me this sweater to use at my house.  She thought it was too old fashioned looking.  I think it is so sweet!

She is so cooperative for pictures!  I take out my camera and she just starts smiling!

But I love her little pensive look....

And her big happy smiley look!

And how her pretty brown eyes just twinkle!

And how much fun she has with her Grandpa Dan!
She is a joy!
Today I found out that my son and dil are expecting a baby girl in July!  I am thrilled to pieces!
When she is born, I am hoping to grab my daughter and baby Addison and hop on a plane to go welcome her!  Oh hubby too! 
Thanks for letting me share these pics today! 
Happy Week-end everyone and please Spring we need you here!

I am joining my friend Laurie @ Bargain Hunting and Chatting with Laurie, for some of  my favorite things Saturday!
Becoming a Grandma is one of my favorite things!

Some Thrifty finds, sewing some pillows and my love for blue and yellow!

Hi All!
I thought it would be fun to share with you some of my recent thrifty finds!  See this cute little moon?
I found this while shopping at a local gift shop.  It was calling my name and saying I know right where you can put me!

Right here!  Above this Pottery Barn crib bedding I got from my sister.  She found it garage saling and only paid a couple of bucks for it.  So you see why I needed that moon?

It fit's so perfectly right up here!
And it's shimmery too!
And Addison loves looking at it !

While I was in Phoenix, Marty @ A Stroll thru Life took some of us gals to her favorite fabric store.
It was wonderful!  I wish I would have had a list of projects . There was so much to choose from and at such great prices!  I did purchase a yard of this fabric for only $2.99!  I was drawn to it and couldn't figure out why!

Well I finally found the time to make some pillows with it.  I found the fringe on clearance and the pillow forms were also on sale. 

See my new pillows?  My drapes are the same pattern only in blue and white!  Now I know why I was drawn to it!

You can see the drapes a little better here.  And you can also see all the snow we have left.  My goodness I want that stuff gone!!

My pillows cost me $8.00 a piece to make.  Not super cheap however the fringe even on sale brings up the cost.
I do think I would pay a lot more for them in a store.  And this way, I get the fabric I want .

I started a little vignette arranging.  I want to add spring since it's not cooperating outdoors I will have to make my own inside!

Changing the mantel a bit.  I need to find something to replace the winter scene soon!

Adding some yellow flowers brings some sunshine and spring inside!

Still kind of wintry here but I will be changing this soon.

And my last thrifty find.  I found this frame at TJ Maxx for only $7.00!  I am using it for Addison pics!
It's a good size frame that holds 3-5 X 7 pics.  And it has that off white cottage look that I love!

So how's your week going?  This is the time of year when I get so envious of my fellow bloggers who live in the south.  I want spring sooo bad I can actually taste it! 
Have a lovely week!
