Oliver enjoying his introduction to his new little sister
My first gift - a play mat made by my own hands - I am not a sewer so this is extra special for me.JPG)
Whereas making cards is one of my hobbies

And now to my second congratulations of the day. As well as being a new Mum Jane is celebrating her 10th wedding anniversary.
Was this really 10 years ago - yes and the same year that we celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary.

Congratulations on the birth of Rebekah! She's just beautiful! How fun to see a picture of you holding her and of Oliver looking so lovingly at his little sister. And, of course, hearty congrats to Janie for a job well done. I must get off to wish her so "in person."
Congratulations Barbara!!

Awww......what a wonderfully sweet new bundle of joy. Oliver also looks pleased to be holding her.
Your card and playmat are both lovely gifts.
Congratulations to your 50 years of marriage and Janie's 10. Both are wonderful and yes, don't the years fly by?
Welcome Rebekah. Congratulations of the addition of a special little girl. There's nothing quite like snuggles with a brand new baby.
Congratulations, Barbara! A sweet babe, she is! Also, congrats to your daughter on 10 years of marriage!
You look quite the fashion plate in that last photo, btw!
Congratulations and A Happy Anniversary to you both. Hope Little Rebekah carries on the tradition.

Congratulations! And many blessings!!
Barbara, these are wonderful pictures. Rebekah is so sweet. I know you are walking on clouds. What a gorgeous bride your daughter was. Your card and play pad are adorable. I'm so happy for your family. I was sure hoping to see some pictures today. What a sweetie! Oliver's a doll too.
So delighted you posted these wonderful pictures! Sweet baby Rebekah, and how adorable is Oliver holding his brand new sister? I am so happy for all of you.
I love your pink play mat by the way. What a great idea.
Relish and enjoy every second of with this new little one.
A beautiful time in your lives.
Congratulations and God Bless you all.
I remember the births of my three Grandchildren very well and the first time I held each one, I said a prayer as I touched each one's top of the head.
"May God keep His hand on you all the days of your life."
Enjoy the new precious girl!
Congratulations to you all!
How very wonderful! Congratulations to you all! What a beautiful little one!
Huge congratulations! How lovely to see the photos of Rebekah, and what a nice name they have chosen.
Congratulations to all of you - babies, wedding anniversaries! So much to celebrate and give thanks for.
The photo of Oliver and his baby sister is adorable. A moment to treasure when things might not be so rosy between the two of them in the future.

Congratulations to Janie for 2 reasons, and also congratulations to you and Alan, Barbara on the birth of your granddaughter! Pink is perfect, and so is that lovely play may you made!
Congratulations to Jane on the birth of Rebekah.She looks cute. Guess you you will enjoy being a grandmother again! Cathy would love to know the weight as you said Rebekah would be big baby. Congratulations too, on Jane's 10th wedding anniversary.
Love Paul & Cathy
So beautiful!
Oliver looks quite enchanted with his little sister.
Two happy occasions in one week...there is a lot to celebrate. Congratulations all around.
Dear Barbara, congratulations on the new arrival to your family. I'm glad to know that all went well and that Janie had a beautiful baby girl. Please send my congratulations to her too. :)

Im so pleased that your daughter was blessed with a beautiful baby girl, it seems that Gods plan was for it to all go smoothly, you are all so blessed at this time. Cant wait to see more photos as she grows up God willing,

Cogratulations from me too. Nothing more fun than being a grandmother.
Congratulations to you all. She's lovely and hasn't she got lovely cheeks, they look rosy.
Bravo to you with your sewing. It will be extra special to her too if you are not a sewer. Maybe you'll continue as it was so successful. I love sewing little dresses but my daughter likes to buy them. It's quite hard to get nice fabric here now, so few shops. That fabric you used looked lovely.
So happy for you! Rebekah is beautiful!
Congratulations to everyone! You, Janie and the daddy and grandpa and Oliver! And welcome, Rebekah!
I'm catching up with blogs and especially appreciated your letter to a daughter post as I have been out this week doing a similar thing...
Saying hello from Kansas.
Congrats again on this new granddaughter. Pray all is going well.
I think your cards are really sweet.
Congratulations! Rebekah is so beautiful, and your grandson, Oliver, is a very lovely child. Thank you for sharing all the pictures.
You are a talented lady. The cards and the mat are amazing.
Enjoy your new granddaughter and this special family time!
Blessings,
Andrea
Huge congratulations Barbara. What a cherubic face. :-)
Well done for making the playmat. I'm sure you will feel inspired into making all sorts of special Grandma-made things over the years from special biscuits to helping them make cards themselves.
I wish you and your daughter's family many joy filled years.
Thanks for the heads up on the new pictures!
Dear Barbara, it seems that I returned at just the right time. Grandbabies what a great blessing. Congratulation to you and your husband. To your daughter on the birth of her new baby and her wedding anniversary but especially to you. connie
I'm so sorry to be late in congratulating your family on the wonderful new arrival.
May she have a joyful life and be enriched by having such a splendid family.
This is thrilling news.
Even if you are not a 'sewer' (?!) the play mat looks great.
I hope you are all not too worn out by all the excitement.
All best wishes
How wonderful! She's so sweet! My brother just had a baby girl and they named her the same name!
Dear Barbara - My congratulations to you and your Janie on the arrival of your precious little one. Rebekah is a beautiful and precious gift from the hand of our Father above. Enjoy every minute with her. You know how quickly they grow! What a beautiful bride your Janie was - and what a handsome family you make! ~Adrienne~
I can hardly believe it was 10 years ago that Janie was married either! It was a lovely day and a beautiful wedding and Janie looked stunning. I also remember being asked by several people whether I was the bride's mother!! Nice to know there's a family resemblance.
I'm sure you're thoroughly enjoying your new little grand-daughter. Congratulations on the playmat - really pretty. (Still no news as to the arrival of my grand-daughter. Hope it won't be too much longer)!
Barbara,
How happy I am for you and all your family...such a beautiful little granddaughter. They are indeed a gift from God. I know Oliver will be a wonderful, caring 'big' brother...
Thank you for visiting with me...our lives have been turned topsy turvy lately...but things will even out eventually...
Wishing you God's richest blessings...Betty
Dear Barbara......
Congratulations on the birth of sweet Rebekah... such a darling little girl..... and congratulations to both you and Jane..... here's wishing you many more happy years. Marion
