HEADED OUT TO MEET SOPHIA !!!!!

My sweet Lindsey is headed in to have her baby!

When I was pregnant with her, I ended up going
a week and a half over due too. She was... 8lb.90z
so...it looks like she is doing the same thing as I did!



PEEL-A-BOO.....GUESS WHO IS ON HER WAY RIGHT NOW ?


AND GUESS WHERE GRANDMA JULIE HAS GONE TO ?
OH, YOU WOULD BE RIGHT ABOUT THAT... ON MY
WAY TOO....TO MEET OUR 20th GRANDCHILD.


I WILL BE GONE FOR A FEW DAYS...
I MIGHT NOT EVER COME BACK...
NO PLACE LIKE GRANDMA HEAVEN!


As soon as I can I'll post some pictures of
our newest little angel that is on her way
from Heaven to join our family. I am over
the moon with excitement!

I know that "over-the-moon" feeling well! God's speed to you and blessings to all!

My daughter was "late" and weighed in at 8lb 6oz. She's a tiny thing now! Fortunately, she had our Little Man a tad early! Look forward to hearing more of Sohia's arrival!

Praying all goes well and you get to hold Sophia soon. You are one cool grandma of 20 kids! I'm one of eight (which was very unusual here growing up) and friends could hardly believe the number of nieces and nephews I have. Nineteen grandkids and 14 greats so far! Have a great trip.

Nana said...

Frieberg will certainly be missed. We love his work. Papa has one of his paintings in his office.

My father was the electrical engineer when the St. George Temple was remodeled. Frieberg had done the murals in there.

Dad knew the murals were going to be destroyed so he was going to cut out part of the canvas off of the wall and and take it home.

He went to work the next day and someone had destroyed all of the murals by just chopping and cutting through them. I have always felt that was a waste. Oh well maybe they were instructed to destroy the murals. (who ever did it.) They would have been a beautiful addition to church history. I don't know.

Deborah said...

Elated for you and you family!!!!!
Cant wait for the photos!!
Love & prayers for Sophia & Momma
