My new title - Grandmother

Sorry to have been absent for a bit.

I was at my daughter's for a few weeks - waiting for our granddaughter to arrive. She came one day before her due date and is an April Fool's baby. The 16 hours of labor followed by a C section was no joke. But happily Lauren Joelle made her way into the world at 7:51 pm weighing 8 pounds 9 ounces and is 21 inches long.

Mother and daughter are doing very well. The baby is a good eater and is quite strong! I love the faces and sounds she makes. She gets the hiccups a lot which, of course, I recorded. I was sad to leave her but also happy to get home and get some projects going.

My daughter has issued a social media ban but I can post these photos which she shared on facebook.



Luckily I get to go back and see her in two weeks. Thank goodness for facetime!!

  4. Fantastic! Congratulations! When I saw the pic, I immediately got jealous because my kids have a social media ban, as well - that's tough for scrapbooking grannies who love to share our work! Guess we won't be seeing that gorgeous face on your blog - glad you were at least able to share this one beautiful pic! Bloggie Love
