Baby Oakley Has Arrived!

Posted on July 17, 2013 by Carol Payne

I am VERY HAPPY to announce the arrival of baby Oakely Dentyn Hiller!

Tuesday, July 16th, 8:55 p.m.

7 lbs. 14 oz.

21 3/4" long!

LOTS of dark hair!

Mother & baby are doing great! Tired, but great!

Here he is!

He's wearing the onesie his mommy created for him to announce her pregnancy on Christmas Eve last year. "Swody" is a blend of our family name for her, "Sweed", and his daddy's name, Cody!

That strange thing attached to Oakley's ankle is the hospital security device. If someone were to try to leave the hospital with this attached to a baby, all the doors and elevators would lock and shut down!

Here's all the "Mark & Carol Payne Grandkids" as of today:

l to r: Ava Claire, Liam Percival, Maddie Kate, Oakley Dentyn, Jaxon William, and Johnny Mark Cohen!

I am SO BLESSED!!!!!

I'm tired too, as I spent all of yesterday at the hospital, but it's a happy tired!

Not much else to report, this is my world right now!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Logan & Logan & Mommies & Babies!

Posted on March 17, 2013 by Carol Payne

Yesterday was a fun, relaxing day! My company came and we had a good time hanging out! That's something I seldom do, so it was a treat!

Logan & "little Logan" got to hang out some too!

In the evening my daughter, Kimberly and my grandson, Liam, came over to visit. "little Logan" is not quite a month older than Liam, and Kimberly and Amanda were cousins who got to see each other alot while they were growing up, so it was a fun reunion!

The girls are so happy being Mommies, just like Debbie & I were when our babies were little!

Just precious! The babies rolled around on the floor together for quite awhile until it was time to go to bed!

While we were at Cracker Barrel today I saw a sign that said, "I may not be rich or famous, but having grandchildren is priceless". That's SO TRUE!!!!!

That's it for today! I'll be back tomorrow with another stamping sample for you!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Our Family Christmas!

Posted on December 31, 2012 by Carol Payne

While I am sitting here being a lump on the couch I thought I would show you what I've been up to during this Christmas holiday season!

Christmas morning: the Payne Clan grandkids: Maddie Kate holding Liam Percival, Ava Claire holding Jaxon William, and Johnny Mark Cohen!

Liam's dad, Tony, loves the movie, "Elf", so this onesie was perfect for him!

Jaxon is very laid back, at almost 12 months (his birthday is December 26th!) he had to be encouraged to open his gifts!

Not Liam, he's always been a real wiggle-worm and has been reaching for things for quite awhile, HE had no trouble trying to get his gifts open!

Alisa & Cody – we received the news on Christmas Eve they will become parents in July! (insert squeals here!)

My husband has always been very creative in his gift wrapping for me – he cut down a Coke carton to wrap my socks!

A very thoughtful gift from my hubby: a box of my "favorite things" – Pretzels, Wild Cherry Pepsi, Heath candy bars, and PAPER and a PEN! (How did he ever guess??? I think after 35 years of marriage he has learned a thing or two!)

The annual "Swim in the Wrapping Paper"! Our kids started this tradition years ago!

All together we had three nights and four days with all 14 of us squeezed into our house, so it was an endless round of food, games, and laundry! (smile!)

That's all for now, I hope to be back to posting creative samples for you all soon!

Until then, have a "Stampingrox!" day!
