I'm A Great-Grandma!

Hello everyone, I hope you are having a nice day! It is nice and sunny and a little chilly hear.
 I have some special news, I'm a great-grandma! Little Gideon Andrew was born October 18th. My grand-daughter Alexis had to have an emergency C-section 3 weeks early. Even though Gideon was considered a preemie he was 9-1/2 lbs and 22 inches long. Everything checked out for a normal healthy baby but the next day they saw his breathing was labored. Because he  was born by C-section  he had fluid on his lungs which made it so he wasn't eating much which lowered his blood sugar. Well he  was put in NICU for a week. I felt so bad for Alexis and Christian having to go home  without their baby. The went to the NICU every day (he was improving daily) and by Thursday the Doctor wanted them to spend the night so Alexis could nurse him. Well the next day they were able to take him home! They are so excited! Little Gideon is very loved and gets LOTS of attention!
Here a some photos of Gideon.

This is a little while after he was born.

Just look at those chubby cheeks!

Daddy is holding him so carefully!

He is such a little doll baby! 2 weeks old

A doll baby with attitude! 2-1/2 weeks old.

    I hope you enjoyed seeing the photos.    Thank you for stopping by and have a great day!

Baby Album- HEAVY PHOTOS

Hello everyone, I hope you are having a nice day!  I'm having another busy one! I am getting ready to go to Florida to attend my 24 year old granddaughter Alexis's baby shower! Yep, I'm gonna be  a great grandma and married to a great grandpa!!!! We are so excited! After the shower I am riding back with my youngest daughter Amy and my youngest granddaughter Ruby 4 (Alexis's aunt and cousin) to their house in Port St. Lucie to babysit Ruby for a week so Mom can get her school band room ready for her students and the new school year. Then I'm going back to Jacksonville to stay with Alexis and Christian to help out and organize things.    I have been sooooo busy this past couple of months. Sewing for Ruby (dresses and outfit and then her mermaid doll, that I posted earlier, for her birthday) and working on a baby quilt and a baby album! Also Amy, Daryl and Ruby were here for the week of the 4th of July and we had sooo much fun and on the go all the time! I may get to rest a little tomorrow and Thursday.
        Today I want to share the baby album the I made.

This is the front cover. Most of the dies that I used were from Aliexpress and the stamps as well.

I love this cute little bear! I used Glossy Accents on the eyes, nose and pacifier. I think the Baby sentiment die is so beautiful!

This is the inside cover and first page.

So cute. 

The baby's first and middle name's are Gideon Andrew. Christian's Father passed away this past February. He wanted to be a grandpa so much. He never knew they were going to have a baby (she wasn't expecting then). His middle name was Andrew so that is going to be the baby's middle name.

This is the page opened out to reveal two mats and a embossed pocket with three tags for photos.

Here are the second and third pages.

The second page has places for photos and notes.

 This is the third page.

And here it is opened up with pockets and pull out mats.

Hello again! Here is another card using the adorable Beach Baby stamp from Penny Black.

 This is one of my favorite stamps! I just love that chubby little baby!

 I used a glitter pen in with the grains of sand and used some pretty cardstock with gold dots and a punched  gold starfish. I colored some clear gems to match the seafoam green mat.
