Too Long



Well it's been too long since my last post. But a lot has happened. Maxwell Mitchell Garner was born on Sept, 16 2009. Was not suppose to be a C sec. But we'll take him anyways. Mommy needed help so I cashed in all my day at a time vacation days and my floating holiday to go to Mississippi. So I could help my sister recuperate. She is a big baby(literally, the baby of our family).

I have the green, yellow and light blue squares done for Max's quilt. 5 of 6 now done. I'm almost done with the navy blue one. Last one is always the killer. I hope now that I've missed one deadline I can meet another one. I'm not stupid enough to think it will get done before the end of this year. Not with Thanksgiving and Christmas yet to come. But perhaps buy the end of February.

I will be cooking Thanksgiving turkey at home this year. First time I've had Thanksgiving day of in many years. I plan on doing a brine. I already bought the turkey. He is thawing in the fridge right now, all 13lbs of him. The next day we are going to drive to Mississippi one more time this year, to visit with Max and the Garner family. We hear that he is smiling and cooing. Can't wait to see how his big brother Charlie is interacting with him now he is responding more.
