    YEE HAW!
    CONGRATULATIONS! A little boy! Here's your chance to raise 'em up right (LOL!) The Lord has definitely sent you a gift!

    Congratuations on the last round of chemo, too! It's good to know that the chemo segment of the trip is over. I know the waiting game is tough, but never fear! Prayer is powerful and you are in my prayers always!

    Hugs!!!

    Congratulations
    Awesome news. You and your daughter have to be just thrilled. It is amazing how they can tell the sex of the baby so early on. I have two boys and a girl and any child is truly a blessing. You enjoy this time in getting prepared. Its so much fun being a grandma.

    A double congratulations on going on your last round of chemo too. That is also something to be very excited about.

    Pics
    Oh you will get tired of me posting pictures...Makes me want to quit my job and just go live near them, so I dont miss anything. I am thinking of getting my daughter a video camera for her bday, so I can see everything. I cant wait to take him to his first Braves game (baseball) I am a big baseball fan especially of the braves. I have to find a little braves outfit for him too. One of the best parts of getting the news was I totally forgot about the cancer even if it was only for a few moments.

    ANd then the waiting of the grandson, I hate waiting but this is one thing I dont mind waiting for...*SMILE*
