TIGER PHOTOS

Thank you for all your well wishes and sweet comments on the new man in my life!  He is the sweetest baby and doing so well!  Sara & Blake are the best first time parents!  I am so proud of my daughter and SIL!!  So here are some new pictures of the little guy....6 days old!

This NB sleeper is one I bought and we thought we better put it on him quick!  He is so big he can't wear most of his Newborn outfits!  

 Such a face!

 This could be Sara's baby picture...he looks so much like her in this photo, I have a picture of her making this face!

More like his Daddy in this one!
Awwwwwwwwwwww

Sleep tight little Tiger!

 
I am still helping my daughter.  I have been so blessed to spend these days with her and share this special time with them as a new family.  I will be back to my regular blogging when I return home.

I am the happiest Grandma!
Hugs,
Linda
Holding my finger!

BLUE BIRD SPRING VIGNETTE

I have a vignette I want to share with you.  Everything is either thrifted or bought on clearance.  I'll do an Easter vignette soon but until then this just makes me feel Springy! 

I love the soft blue and whites of this vignette

I put this blue bird from Michael's under the cloche
The blue birds and 'Friends' sign were on clearance at Michaels 70% off
A close up 
I used one of my milk glass bud vases and added some sweet little white flowers that are growing wild in my back yard
I love this milk glass plate with a blue and brown pattern
I used two soft blue plates and two 'spring' plates in the plate rack to carry the color up onto the wall
Thank you to all my Friends for helping me with 'baby watch'.  We are still waiting. 

I'm joining these fun parties!

I hope you will go visit these fun parties!

YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU WILL FIND!

One of my favorite things about thrifting, yard sales and junkin, is that you never know what you will find!  


 These cute little Christmas Angels were marked 99 cents each but it was Sr Day so I got them for 75 cents each! 
I love their faces.  They are marked Homeco.  Sometimes the best Holiday items are found off season! 
Like this round Christmas tablecloth.  $1 at my junkie thrift store
I love the fringe and the retro design
I also found this dip bowl with the hanger at the junkie thrift.  It was 50 cents.  I know I will find the chip dish as I see them all the time.  What is hard to find is the hanger!  It needs some cleaning but I was excited to find this.

I found this green canister for $1.98 
I love the details

This yellow Fiesta demitasse cup
also $1.98...I love the handle

I almost didn't buy this but it was only 35 cents and I figured someone would like it.

So these are my latest finds.  
I'm joining Suzanne for

and 

Diann for the first
Thanks again for taking the Friday party Diann....I'm excited to join in this first week!  Please go join Diann as she has a giveaway also.  This girl knows how to party!!!

Happy Junkin,

Linda

WHATS UP WEDNESDAY 3-30-11 & A WINNER

It's Wednesday!  So what's Up??? Not much.  No baby yet, I'm thinking maybe this weekend or early next week, but you know first babies...they take their time.

I've had a runny nose from my allergies and have been drinking lots of fluids and resting.  I am finally feeling better.  Mr. ALC went out last night and got us chocolate milkshakes....medicinal of course!  :)  
I want to remind everyone to join in with Diann for

Congrats Amanda & Jason
Wishing you much Happiness!
