:biggrin: I just got a phone call from my son that I am going to be a grandmother. Yippee! He and his wife have called everybody! Boy are they excited, but my son is nervous. I am too excited! Cannot wait. Hope everything goes well for mom to be and baby! Ask me if I am going to have fun baby shopping down the road.

Re: A new edition

Thanks. Had to go and find a cute little baby item to throw in as an attachment. Will have to excuse the extra space. Hard to believe. They have been married 15 months. She hasn't turned 21 yet. I will be doing plenty of volunteer babysitting!

Re: A new edition

How exciting! Congratulations to you all. We'll have to work on an appropriately cute granny name for you. Do they live close by?

Re: A new edition

Is this the son and DIL who have all the cats and the very small apartment? How are they going to manage? Please tell your DIL straight away that she needs to stay away from the litter boxes. She might not know that it's not good for her health or the baby's.

Re: A new edition

Yes, they do. I can be at their home in about 15 minutes. She has about 8 months to go. Only about 3 or 4 weeks along so I am figuring the middle or end of April is when she is due. I will pick up some baby necessities here and there along the way. I told them they can pick up baby items at yard sales as to high chairs, strollers, etc. And I will check out items at that big flea market we like to go to every month. They always have baby items galore for sale out there. I have also many times over given them the need to save money talk. Hopefully they will do so now! Yes, Mermaid they have the cats. They are now in a bigger two bedroom apartment. I will relay that message for her to stay away from the litter box. She isn't the one that cleans that out luckily, my son is. I have also relayed to her the importance of not smoking or drinking!

I would be stunned if it ended up being twins. Don't know of any twins, I know there isn't on my side but don't know about hers.

Congrats LadyD on the news! Yes, smoking, drinking and litterboxes are very important to avoid during pregnancy. Seeing as she is not yet 21, I am sure drinking is not a problem!
