New Grandbaby Update!

I spent the day at Travis and Kerry's painting and varnishing. They are hard at work in their basement doing a little remodeling and finishing work. Since Kerry really shouldn't be around the fumes I volunteered to help. I did convince Kerry to pose for a picture so everyone could see how she is progressing.

Kerry says the baby is VERY active! She feels good except that she is having a hard time sleeping. Her due date is August 26th, but they feel she'll go early. We'll just wait and see. Travis has a birthday on August 14th so maybe that will be the day. The ultra sound technician could tell the sex the last time they were there, so she wrote it down and put it in an envelope which Travis sealed with packing tape so no one could peek! We're about split on what we think it is. Grandpa would like a boy to carry on the Juilfs name. I would love to have a granddaughter, what with having three grandsons already. It's time to buy pink, frilly, and dolls! But whatever it is we will be happy when it's here and healthy!!

I vote for the 25th (my b-day)! So much to look forward to - I remember with a smile all the preparations we were doing last summer at this time. So - if baby is due on 8/26, is your countdown/ticker off? It says 81 days to go . . .

DUH - I looked at your ticker again - it says 8 WEEKS, one day. oops! :)

Thanks for all the help yesterday. We would never be this far if it weren't for our mothers!! But no more pictures :)

So...you helped them by painting their house, you helped Trilby by going to the zoo with the boys. When is it our turn for some help on a project??

Looking good Kerry!! I am guessing Kerry won't make it to August and I am also guessing that it is a boy! And I am going on record with that!

Apparently Trina has a short memory about all the remodling Dad helped her do in her old house!!
