Thinking Pink

One of my dear friends just gave birth to her fifth child (her first girl!) a couple of weeks ago, and I think attending her baby shower combined with Valentine's Day put me in a pink kind of mood.

Baby shower card for my friend:




A thank you card for my daughter's prayer partner at church:


A thank you card for our school secretary (for helping clean up my daughter after she fell into a "mud pit" during recess while playing tag with an intrepid band of first graders):



I must have been subconsciously looking forward to St. Patrick's Day as well, since there is quite a bit o' the green in these cards too!

Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Hugs,

Such a Sweet Pea!

This week we welcomed a new neighbor to the block - our friends' little baby girl...their fourth girl!

Everybody is quite taken with this little sweet pea, although our son was a bit disappointed at first. On hearing the news that the baby was yet another girl, he turned his face to the heavens and wailed, "WHY does it always have to be GIRLS?!" then he promptly burst into tears. Poor guy! He certainly is outnumbered in the neighborhood. He's come around, though, and thinks the baby is very small and very cute. :)

Here's the card I made to welcome the new baby:
