My Goodness! What a slacker I am! Here it is July and I haven't put a post on here since March! That's awful! Well, our biggest news is : Little Vincent Thanomas Burks is here! He was born July 8, 2009 and weighed 3 lbs. 6 oz. He is already up to 3lbs. 14oz.! He is doing great! I can hardly wait for him to come home!
I am expecting 4 more grandbabies by March! Amy and David are expecting a boy! Due in September. Fonso and Cheryl, also a boy! Due in December. Raqui doesn't know yet whether a boy or girl, due in January. And Tom and his little girlfriend Carolyn are pretty sure they are also expecting, probably in March or April! Lots of new babies!
Other news: Tom's court date has been extended till November! So, that is a relief for now! Megan is doing ok, enjoying her time off from school. She goes monday to get her wisdom teeth pulled. Raqui and her boys have moved out of my house into their own apartment! All my grandbabies here are doing good! All growing up so fast and learning so many new things! Darius is taking about 8 steps at a time now!
I've been very busy making baby things! I tried something new called a cocoon for Jen's little Vinnie. It looked like something a preemie in particular would feel safe and cozy in! I bought the pattern from a seller on etsy! Here is a link to her shop soyou can see what a cocoon is! I will take a pic of him in it after he is home!
Now I need to try to get some new things done to list on etsy! I only have 22 items on there right now! I have also sold some of my crocheted things on ebay lately! I also have something in mind for Amy's birthday, which is coming up FAST!!
I had a great birthday! Getting so old! Thanks for all the wonderful gifts and cards!
