Nicole’s mom was babysitting and she dressed Adalina up in some of the clothes she, Nicole’s dad and their parents wore as babies. I never get tired of seeing pictures of her and I thought I’d share a couple with you.
They got so many pretty crocheted baby blankets as gifts. Years and years ago I did French Handsewing and smocking and love seeing the old outfits on her.
Maybe the owl quilt doesn’t go with the vintage outfits but it was nice of Nicole’s mom to include it in a picture.
I can hardly wait to get to Missouri and see them and hold her and snuggle with her. Seriously . . maybe I should leave here today! 🙂

What an adorable baby… start packing Judy!
Donna says
She is so pretty! I have a better idea….Why don’t you go get her and bring her to Texas while they move and get settled! They wouldn’t miss her at all with all they have to do. (lol)
Liz N says
She is precious! I agree……..PACK!!!
Freda Henderson says
She is precious, Judy.

She lookes like a little angel. I hope you get to snuggle with her real soon.
Helene says
Oh she is just beautiful! It must be hard on you to be away from her – and of course Chad and Nicole.
Diann Smith says
Precious little girl.. U need to leave NOW..ha
Judy D in WA says
I think Donna has a great idea. Hurry, get packing! Oh my, she is just gorgeous!
Diana Purdy says
I think Donna had the right idea, go get her,you can teach her all about the chickens and how to sew and quilt. It’s never too early to start! 🙂 She’s a precious little one!
Doreen says
I agree with Donna…….generously offer to ‘help them out’ by rescuing little Adelina from the packing ‘chaos’ for a bit!!!! They would be grateful…..wouldn’t they??????? Hehe!
Kim Paventy says
Hey Judy!
I think if that bundle was mine I would keep a bag packed and by the door for when I needed some lovin! She is really starting to look like Chad.
Marion Morgan says
She is just beautiful and she’ll just get better and better so enjoy every minute. Blanket and quilt can’t outshine this little person although they are beautiful as is her lovely dress.
Linda (Petey) says
Oh, 2 months…that’s how old our daughter was when we adopted her and brought her home…after a 9 year wait! So cute and ready to cuddle! I know you cannot read this; you are already out the door 🙂
WyoPat says
What a beautiful little girl! The “antique” dresses remind me of the baptismal gown my son and both of his daughters wore when they were baptized; it was made by my grandmother for my mother’s baptism! What a treasure!
Linda says
Seriously…get in the car and go!
Angie says
Such a beautiful little girl! I’m sure it is difficult being so far away.
Mary Jo says
Go! She will be filling out college applications before you know it!
I love seeing pictures of her. The vintage clothes are wonderful. All three of my granddaughter wore a couple of the dressed I wore as a baby. I had professional pictures done of all of them, posed just like I was in a picture my family had made of me. Love seeing how much they looked like me, but also seeing all of the rest of the family in how they looked! Isn’t it wonderful being a grandmother!
AnnieO says
Beautiful girl! She has that rosebud mouth and oh-so-pinchable little cheeks. You’re a lucky grandma!
Doe in Mi says
Oh so beautifully huggable. Be careful not to squeeze her to hard.
Laura says
She is adorable!
FrancesB says
So precious.
Karin says
soooo cute! It would drive me batty not to be able to be near a grandbaby!
Linda in NE says
You have such a cute little granddaughter. Maybe you SHOULD throw some clothes in a bag, hop in the car & head for MO. Oh yeah, leave Vince a note so he doesn’t report you missing. LOL
Debbie Rhodes says
She has the Gerber baby looks my girls and grand daughters had… just want to kiss the baby cheeks…
Hilary McDaniel says
I made my 2girls all their smocked dresses. I loved making them each a baptismal gown that hung 4′. That was fun. I took Martha Pullen classes and really enjoyed doing all the fancy stitching. I still have all my Sew Beautiful and Creative Needle magazines. I wish I knew someone that would use that valuable resource. It’s sewing at its finest. A true dying art. I’m thrilled Nicole and Chad are dressing that gorgeous Adalina in them. There’s nothing sweeter than a baby all snuggled up in beautiful gowns. Time for another road trip before the snow starts flying in Mo.
Chris Miller at the Resort says
Such precious pictures!!
Penny Holliday says
Judy, she’s more beautiful w/ each pic that you share w/ us. I love the vintage dresses on her & I think that your owl quilt adds great background color. Adalina looks like she is enjoying her finery & being photographed, also! Thanx for sharing! Penny in So CA
Janet says
She’s pretty cute stuff! Can’t believe it’s two months already!
Deb Praus says
I would be in serious snuggle withdrawal…..are you packed yet?
She is a doll!
Brenda B. says
We bumped into Chad, Nicole and Adalina last week at WalMart. They all looked so happy! She is a doll – what a lovely family. I hate to think they will soon be leaving town too.

Thank You for sharing your adorable granddaughter. She is just precious!! Enjoy when you can, girl, for they grow up way too fast!!
Cathy Stoddard says
Precious baby girl, precious gown, precious quilt, and must be another wonderful grandma for Miss Adalina. How thoughtful for her other grandma to send pics of her with the adorable owl quilt you made for her! Are Chad, Nicole, and Adalina by any chance moving any closer to Texas?????
Thanks for sharing Judy.
Brandy M. says
Awww – she is purely precious!! Thanks for sharing, Judy!
