How about we close out the weekend with a picture . .
That’s the little blanket that I knitted for her. I thought leaving Chad was hard but leaving the baby is so much harder! Someone has to move . . us or them . . but we have to be closer to them . . soon!
Kristie says
God bless your little angel! With all of those acres, you could build a little home for them but still have some privacy 😉
SarahB says
Oh my she is a cutie! How are the new parents doing??
Linda in NE says
Start looking for jobs for them that they can’t refuse near you.
suzanne says
Oh. Judy….build them a spot on the heaven of a place you have….what a great place to raise a grandchild!! Sweet little girl, so precious!
Rose says
Awww she is such a treasure 🙂 Do you have a baby pic of Chad for comparison, always interesting to see how much like their parents, new babys are!
Leslie Sorenson says
There is no return from the land of proud grand-parenting. No fool in his right mind would live in Northern California for retirement but guess where I live? The DGDs were like an ultra strong magnet drawing me here. I’ve never regretted it. But I may not travel as much and I live in a small house.
Mary C in WA says
What No picture with Grandma?? You have to go back and get one. or take one before you leave this time. She’s a cutie.
Donna F says
Aww what a sweet lil girl. Those cheeks are priceless! I know how you feel being a new grandma. My first grandbaby is 2 months old and he’s got nana’s heart. We are blessed.
lw says
Loving the non-pastel soft, fuzzy blanket!
Chris Miller at the Resort says
She’s so precious! There’s nothing, nothing, like being a grandma. Hugs to all of you!
Ranch Wife says
With a name like Adelina, she really should be raised in Texas. Just saying.
Jennifer says
Beautiful! Hope you get to see her again really soon!
Stephani Siekierski says
Aw-w-w, how sweet she is. So glad you got to see her so soon.
Angie in SoCal says
In this latest picture, I think she looks like you.
What a sweetie.
glen in louisiana says
LOL. I knew that “move” thing was going to come into play soon!

Diann Smith says
Adorable. We had to do the same..move nearer. The grandchildren kept coming and we couldn’t stand not being near them. We MOVED states and now live 1/2 mile away. Can be there in minutes! and we often are. They come over too.
Lynne in Hawaii says
Help them find work near you…since they are not yet in ‘career’ jobs yet nor locked into real estate. Job market may be better in Texas and it is a good place to raise families.
Doris - The Quilting Queen says
Lynne in Hawaii, I may need some tourist advise in about 6-9 months. My daughter and granddaughter are moving to Japan for 3 years (son-in-law in the navy). We are planning to meet “half way” in Hawaii for a vacation with them next spring/summer.
Debi McIntosh says
She is such a cutie Judy – they all are when asleep 🙂
Glenda in Florida says
Is this the place where I say “I told you so!”? I did warn you about how a grandchild can change everything a month or so ago, and just chuckled at your reply to me. And it looks like you got a really sweet little girl. Grandma is the best job in the world!
reenie says
now that is a sweet little sight 🙂
Linda Steller says
Well, since you have you little slice of heaven in Texas, I think they are going to need to come live by you! A nice cabin on the other side of your acres would be good, and then you could ride your little cart over there, with the cows trailing behind! I can see it in my mind’s eye, Judy! ;D
Dora, the quilter says
If there are no jobs near you that would suit them, maybe they could move about half way between both sets of grandparents? Not a perfect solution, but probably a lot better than the distance between right now!
Lee Ann L. says
What? but but but you just got settled into your dream home. LOL. 🙂 When Vince retires, you can move closer to them. 🙂
Mariel says
She is so precious! She looks so content sleeping in grandma’s blankie. Your life is going to be so blessed having this little one around. Hope you all get to be closer in distance, some way, some how!
JanetB says
Granddaughter’s are wonderful! You are so blessed to have her.
Truddi Varner says
Pretty bay, pretty blanket
Doris - The Quilting Queen says
I couldn’t agree more on all accounts. Just count your blessings they aren’t half way around the world in Japan! :(,,
boo hoo! All I can say is lots of trips back and forth and I know a road trip partner who would be more than willing to drive when you’re tired.
Pat says
So cute!!! We are 3 hours from ours and it’s hard…I cannot imagine being 10 hours away. 🙁
Shirley Albertson Owens (sao) says
Life is too short to not live close to our grandangels. It is NOT THE SAME when you just visit. I love the little things – like driving them to school – helping with homework – but when you live far away, you just enjoy them when you are with them – REAL FAST!!!!
