My only son and daughter-in-law have informed my husband and me that we are going to be first time grandparents! To say that I am over the moon would be an understatement. We are so excited, are already talking about turning one of our guest rooms into a "baby room" and I have been asked if I would consider watching the little angel 2 days a week while my daughter-in-law works part-time as a physical therapist. I guess you all probably know what my answer was! YEEEEEESSSSSS!!

I already know, this is my best Christmas gift this year.

Love and hugs, Renee

    So happy for you, Miss Renee ...
    I imagine you have already started painting the 'baby' room in preparation of your first grandchild's arrival. Okay, I am mistaken --- you are out and about buying baby clothes, blankets and rattles!!! Congratulations !!!

    babies!
    That is such great news, Renee! In the past 2 years, we've become grandparents to 3 babies (a set of twins included) and have one more on the way. It is such a blessing! You will absolutely love being a grandma (or grammy or nana)!

    Grandbabies
    are every bit as wonderful as you think they will be and then multiply it a hundred times more. I have two -- three year old grandson and year and a half granddaughter. My grandson is absolutely in love with me (today:) and it's so much fun.

    I wish you every happiness.

    What a wonderful Christmas present. I don't think I would have made it through all of this without my grandkids (ages 3 and 1). It doesn't get any better than being a grandma !! Enjoy !!!

    Congrats! It is the BEST being a gma
    We are on the countdown for the arrival of our little pink JC whose due date is 4 weeks and 6 days away, WOOHOO! Hers is the only kind of pink allowed in our family this year.

    Have fun getting ready and doing all the shopping, etc. Lord knows I am still over the moon about my grands, even though my 2yr old embarrassed me at church this week, LOL

    ENJOY!!

    great news
    There is nothing like being a gramma! Congratulations! You are so lucky to have your son and daughter in law live near by. I have a 3 year old grandson and a one month old granddaughter. They live in Germany but will be moving to Alabama in January. I can hardly wait to see them, to see the baby for the first time.
