Wonderful news! CongratulationsI can finally tell you all that I'm going to be a grandmother for the first time! My daughter wanted to wait until the miscarriage risk was over and things are looking good even though she's only 8 weeks along. She had her first ultrasound and heard the baby's heartbeat yesterday. She texted me a pic which made me a little verklempt. My first grand baby pic. Due date is November 30.
I am happy because my first attempt at drawing a feather....looks like a feather. I will have to make attempts with markers next.
Thank you to every one for the best wishes!
Finished up the jacket, bathrobe, 2 pj tops, and yoga style lounge/pj pants over the weekend so sending the box off to my daughter today or tomorrow. That may be it for a while until we learn the sex.
Between me and SIL's parents--first grandchild for them, too--this will be one pampered baby! We live in Maine but they've been thinking about moving to MA for the last year or so and may get more serious now that they've heard the baby news. I'll have to be better about making trips down there so I'm not the Nana baby doesn't know or bond with.

It didn't matter that much to me so asked my daughter and she said she'd like it to be Nana which is what she calls my mother. I'm okay with that. Dare I ask what you got stuck with?Now this is very important, have you decided what the name is that you want your grandchild(ren) to call you? I am the mother of the father of the child, so I was stuck with the name the DIL wanted me to have as she had designated her mother as Nana. I HATE IT!

(((Haunted))) I haven't asked what the other grandparents will be called. Wouldn't bother me if they wanted Nana, too, though.Well, it makes me sound like I am from a holler in an unexplored area of the Adirondacks. Not that that is bad, but I am as urban is it comes.
Now, you are definitely a Nana!
When my oldest had her first child she asked me what I wanted to be called. I said “The Papster.” She would have none of it. So my second choice was “Pop.” But somehow it has become “PopPop.”
Also the sound a gun makes after reading too many smart alecky comments.Pop goes the weasel has a nice ring to it.........
