Hey Mikey

Ready to meet our first Great Grandson?  He is just perfect.

Mikey May 27


Mikey  May27

oh so tired

He looks a bit like his Mother and a lot like himself. He is sleeping, growing, eating well and pooping so life is good for him.

I finished his blanket.  It is behind him in the first two photos.  It is a simple crochet blanket using Bernat yarn which is cuddly soft and washable.  Maddie reports that he likes his blankie already.

Gene and Mikey

Far Guy says this baby makes us Great!

At any rate Mikey has a whole lot of people who love him!

Great Grandma (1 of 1)

Me and Mikey and yes he made me cry.

Mikey is beautiful! Should we be calling him Kaine? I can see his resemblance to you, Connie.

I have been anxiously awaiting these pictures. Mikey is adorable. I love the photos of you and FG holding him. So thankful he and his mommy are doing well.

Mikey is a beautiful baby boy. If he is forming an attachment to his soft blankie, you had better get busy on a spare for the washer!

Maybe you should have called this wet Thursday. You've got me crying too. Mikey is adorable!! I love the pictures of you and Grandpa holding him. He looks like a baby doll in that first picture, and that big yawn. How sweet!
