Now that I am having a baby, I have received a few other things that are pieces I will always cherish. My dad refinished and reupholstered the rocking chair that my Granny rocked him in and Mom rocked me in as well. So we know it's at least 67 years old. He did such a beautiful job with the it. It will be a cherished and charming addition to the nursery. Thanks Dad! You done good! I'm very honored that you would spend the time and effort to do this for us!
Notice the perfection in his work. The house could crash in, but this chair would still remain intact!! I get my perfectionism from him I guess.
It's just so cute. I can't wait to rock him in it!
Mom has held onto her bassinett that my MeeMaw used for her and then once again Brent and I used when we were babies as well. So, once again we have at least 3 generations and roughly 67 years old. It is such a cool little bassinett. She had bedding made to fit it. It's gorgeous and will be so uselful in the beginning. I love it Mom!
You can just see the story written all over this bassinet. It has lots of stories to tell!
At some point, there will be a sweet little baby laying in there...can't wait!
Mom had some of my artwork that I did as a child framed. Too cute and a great idea Mom!
This owl watercolor I did brings back some memories. I painted it in the 2nd grade in Mrs. Pendland's art class (where I met my oldest friend in the world...miss Carrie Jenkins). If I remember correctly, I painted this for the county fair and won some awards.
Mom also died some of my old sandals that I wore as a baby. How cute are they??
