You have probably all heard there is a new great-grandchild in the family. Taylor Elizabeth Bright entered the world a few weeks early on August 1. Elissa had quite a brief labor and easy delivery, and Taylor weighed in at 6 lb. 13 oz., in spite of being 3 1/2 weeks early. No significant problems due to her early arrival, thank heavens.
I already had a flight booked to attend a baby shower on Sunday, so the Friday arrival was perfect for me! A baby is more of a treat than a shower any day! Elissa felt so good, that we did do a modified shower at their home Sunday afternoon, the day they came home from the hospital. (We think she is as cute as Carlie, who is a very pretty baby! Pictures will follow when Ed gets them out of his camera and onto my computer.)
My tiny garden went nuts while I was out of town. I am making pickle relish this evening and we will grill summer squash for our dinner side course.
Can't wait to see you all at the family picnic, after which I will spend a couple of days in Nebraska with Kelly and in Yutan, before heading back to KC to finish up some baby projects (curtains for the baby room for my part, ceiling fan and light in the baby room for Ed, don't know if we'll get the room painted.....) and hold baby Taylor some more.
Hope MJ's recovery is progressing as well as Aunt Marge's condo renovation.
Love,
Janice
