HappyMaz Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 My mom reckons grandchildren are the best because you can give them back! I heard it said that grandchildren are the reward you get for not killing your children. I think of that on stressful days! Quote

Panders Posted May 12, 2011 Author Posted May 12, 2011 Hoping the photo has uploaded o.k. Thank you so much for all your lovely comments, we have had so much fun this afternoon just baby gazing. Had the most scrumptious cuddle, she was awake for nearly 4 hours this afternoon and just a joy hardly crying at all. (long may that continue!!) DIL looking great on it, son still looks a little bemused that it wasn't the boy they had so expected it to be. Quote
HappyMaz Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 Beautiful! There is nothing quite so scrummy as a newborn! Glad everyone is doing well. Can you quite believe it yet, Panders? Quote
Guest tinkerbell Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 Wonderful news and picture.My grandson is 3 years old now and I get him every sunday for a whole day...it is the best day of the week and we have an absolute ball. Enjoy x Quote
Panders Posted May 12, 2011 Author Posted May 12, 2011 Beautiful! There is nothing quite so scrummy as a newborn! Glad everyone is doing well. Can you quite believe it yet, Panders? No, all seems a little surreal at the moment, but meeting her really helped. DIL seems very confident so I am very pleased as she will have to come home tomorrow. Son's off for a couple of weeks though. Just want to be a good grandma really. Quote
HappyMaz Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 Just want to be a good grandma really. Well it is clear to all that you'll be a fantabulous grandma! Happy days! Quote
Guest Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 AAAAHHHH! Ruby Mae is Gorgeous (with a capital G!) Love the position of her hands.... is that an early indication of a "bring it on" attitude, I wonder!? Nona Quote
sunnyday Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 Ah Panders - she is BEAUTIFUL..........and of course you will be the best granny ever! Quote
Pimms o'clock? Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 Congratulations to you for being a "new granny" and best wishes to your family. xx Quote
