My daughter-in-law came running up the stairs (they live with us) about an hour and a half ago to announce that her water just broke! They have rushed off to the hospital now and while I was typing, my son called in with an update. My first granddaughter, third grandchild, Chloe Michelle, should be born in the next few hours. Guess I'll be up later than usual tonight waiting on the news. All my crocheting and knitting is about to come to fruition!

well? i'm still awake. what's the scoop?
Posted By: Patty S Re: IT'S BABY TIME - October 23rd, 2006 at 01:51 PM
OK, I can be tolerant & patient here, cuz when my water broke with Lincoln on May 20, 19XX ...he didn't show his face for 26 hours!

"Ouch", "agghhh", "ouch again", for Mommy...
but " [Linked Image]" for Daddy & the rest of the crew-in-waiting!


It's only been 5 hours since your post Thorny, but just so you know, I'm with you in spirit. (HANG IN THERE, GRAMPA!)

Praying God's blessings on precious little Chloe Michelle as she makes her debut, & on all who await her arrival.
[Linked Image] Congratulations!


* ("19XX" cuz I'm tired of dating myself all the time here! As these new babies come along, the reality of being old becomes more vivid!)

Posted By: Patty S Re: IT'S BABY TIME - October 25th, 2006 at 09:55 PM
Welllll, let's not start getting on Thorny for the no pic thing... he might be a victim! eek

My "new" bundle is 5 weeks old today, & other than a video of her 2 weeks ago, I haven't received any snapshots since she was 20 days old! [Linked Image] (Except for the ones that are downloading at this very minute! Shelly's pics are HUGE... bigger than my monitor, so it takes forever. Then I have to resize everything so I can see them!) :rolleyes:

Things must be pretty busy at his house... I just hope everything is OK!
HEY GRAMPS! [Linked Image] Check in, will ya?!

I'm well aware of that Wrennie, cuz just like everybody else, I read his first post where he said, "(they live with us)..."
If I remember right, I made mention that things must be pretty busy at "his" house. I remember how busy mine was when a new baby came home!
