Just found out that grandbaby #3 is on the way. I've already got 2 grandsons, it would be fun to have a girl this time. If it's a boy tho, I surely won't complain...I raised 3 daughters. :-6:):-6

Thanks to all...it's always exciting to get another one and my newly married daughter had her hubby un-fixed, so they're going to try to have another one too. Doesn't seem possible when I just turned 44!

Thanks Patsy...we still have about 7 months of anticipation, but as long as it's healthy I don't care what we get.

Aren't they a blast? I also have a 3yr old grandson (almost 4) and he loves doing things with Bamma and Beepa. They sure are hard to keep up with...never ending energy....you must have been totally exhausted after a whole weekend!!! :wah::wah:

Thankfully they're all to little to be looking for a loan...they're happy if you give them a penny! :wah:

Just found out that #3 is a boy too...he's due Feb. 12th. So much for getting the fancy dresses out! :wah::wah: Also my oldest daughter and her husband are trying to get pregnant again. I'm not sure what I'm gonna do with all these babies!! Well ok, I do know what I'll do with them, snuggle, cuddle and spoil!! Three important criteria for being a grandma!

I think my brother has one with the 5 of us, this is including my oldest grandson. I need to see if he has it and can send it to me.

When I spoke to him earlier this evening he was bouncing around like zeberdee - didn't even realise anything was wrong until my wife told me.
Oh for the resilience of youth - at five it's all an adventure :-4
