Hello! It's Violet Fields!!

No, it's not the name of the baby and it's not my name either. More on that later.

For those of you, like me, that have been eagerly awaiting Jill's next blog update, I threatened that I would just have to update it myself. I just know that my little grand-daughter would want you to know what has been going on now and not have to wait and read about her in a Christmas card.

Yes, my little grand-daughter! She still doesn't have a name, at least one agreed upon by her parents, but she knows who she is to me!

Blogging

Okay, I have never written a blog before, so you may want to stop reading; I'll understand. Presurfer.blogspot.com is a pretty cool site if you get bored. For those of you that know me, I tend to do things backwards (like start at the back of a magazine, run backwards, you get the idea). I shall start with today (it's still fresh in my memory) and work my way back to the last blog.

Violet Fields

That is the main color of the baby's nursery. I love the color and Jill has picked out several other pretty colors to accompany it. They all look nice on me, especially my hands (gee, I thought I washed my hands better than this). I started painting the room yesterday. Out of the three colors, Jill has only changed two of them. lol. Jill does have a keen eye and I like her new choices even better, she is going to have her little girl's room looking posh.

Kelly is putting in new carpet as soon as I am done painting. The glider chair has been ordered, as well as the crib and dresser/changing table. Jill bought the most beautiful, feminine lamp. Actually, I think a pic of it is already in here somewhere. More to follow as the room comes together!

the Mommy-to-Be

My little Jilly is doing great. She is glowing and beautiful and I just love that big round tummy of hers. Little Miss What's Her Name is a mover! She is constantly doing cartwheels and back flips and making her mommy moan in mild discomfort. She is busy in there and we all love to watch Jill's belly move. Jill has yet to complain about all of the handprints we must be leaving behind on her belly.

4D Ultrasound

Several weeks ago Jill had her 4D ultrasound and it was amazing, very surreal. We could see her yawning, moving her hands, sucking her thumb, opening her eyes, give us the peace sign and let us know everything is A-Ok in there. Jill has a lot of pictures and a DVD showing all the action.

Back to the Future

Next on the horizon is another shower for the princess, I mean, princesses. I am looking forward to it and I know that Jill is, too! It will be so nice to see everybody and to try not saying "that's sooooo cute" a hundred times. Everything is SO CUTE, though.

Has Mommy-to-Be Been Napping?

Okay, Jill...I hope you got in a nap while I've been updating your blog. Thank you for letting me do so; it actually wasn't too hard and way easier than giving a speech live. No one can throw anything at me (alas, there IS that delete key).

...that's so cute!
