A Very Blessed Christmas!!

Our little angel finally arrived! We feel so truly blessed and thank God that he is a healthy little boy!
Vann Hadley Coffman
December 11th
8 lbs. 11 ozs. (ouch, right!)
21 & 1/2 inches
Thank you to everyone for your well wishes and prayers. I really appreciate it!
And, thank you for your name suggestions...we could not decide until the last minute!!
I thought I would share a couple of new pieces as well:
This is "Azalia and Little Arthur"
7 X 9
Available in my etsy shop:
Here
Little Arthur is a loyal friend who is heard to be quite an exceptional keeper of secrets.
And this piece is titled "The Lovely Lass"
7 X 9
Available in my etsy shop:
Here
(I love this one)
Some bits and pieces of vintage lace, paper, vintage book pages...

I hope to do many more new pieces in the coming weeks that I can share now that I have some precious time off! I hope everyone is having a very blessed holiday season!

  7. Welcome to the world Master Vann Hadley Coffman.

    I cannot put into words how thrilled I am for you all, words seem inadequate for the joy that I feel.

    Congratulations Julie, I hope that the birth went well and without too many problems. These big boy's can cause a little trouble getting into this world, my grandson weighed in at an amazing 9lbs 13 oz and caused havock as he made his entrance.... I hope that Vann Hadley made a smoother arrival.

    I send you ALL my love and best wishes, 'MERRY CHRISTMAS' and a very 'HAPPY NEW YEAR'
