New baby girl

Sorry I am going to make you wait till the end of this post to see the picture of the new baby. I am starting out with my Dad's service. We had it on April 18. It was a really nice day and I got to see family that I have not seen for many years. The service wasn't anything fancy or anything like that. It was very simple the way Dad wanted it. It was hard to think that Dad was in that little box.

I finally have a picture of Shawn and his haircut. Turns out that he is a nice looking guy. Now if only he would keep his body parts to himself. But he does make cute babies. This is his fifth.

Meet Zoey Lynn, born on April 27, 2009 8:11am. She was 4lbs 14ozs, 19" long. Mama didn't have any trouble and once she started hard labor it went fast. So fast that she didn't have any pain meds.
Now for the bad news!! I am laid off again and have been for 2 weeks now. It don't look like I might not be going back this time. The company stopped our insurance on March 31 and then our last day was the Thursday before Easter. This time we didn't get to finish the work on out tables. Last week I heard that the supervisers are laid off too. When I went by the buildings the other day there was only 2 cars in the lot at the one I worked in and only about 5 at the main building and I don't know who 2 of them belonged to. They haven't said that we are not going back its just a feeling I have. After working there for almost 33 years I have no idea how to go about looking for a new job that will pay me as much or better that what I was making, but I did go to the Job store and they helped me do a resume. It is only a 1 pager but I hope it will work.

Brittany has decided to go to Ohio State. She had to chose from 3. I told her that I was not going to wear one of those shirts. Really though I am happy that she picked the one that she felt suited her the best. It is a little sad though that she is going to go away. She has always been one of those special kids that just makes you happy to have her around, she is always so upbeat. I know that Grandpa and I will be making some trips to go see her.

I have gotten behind with my blocks for my family exchange. I got all the blocks cut out now and all ready to sew. I am only 14 behind but I cut them and the ones for the next time. Got them all marked with the dia. line and the squares pinned together. All I have to do now is sew.
