I've decided now that the word is out I can expell all this excitment that's been welling up inside of me since the end of August. Woooooooooo Hoooooooooooo.......
I'm gonna be a Grandma!
Our Oldest daughter Brianna and her husband Chris are expecting their 1st child (our 1st grandchild) April 23, 2009. I have to admit that even though I'm excited and ready for this new "season" of my life, I still cant quite grasp the idea of me....being a grandma. I'm WAYYYYYYYYYY to young, and I still have my own baby here at home. Well ok.... my 6'2" 220 pound baby 17 yr. old, but still.....my baby! I'm excited for Rick and I as we anticipate this little bundle, it's gonna be so fun. I'm also excited to watch my little girl and Chris be parents. I fully believe they will be wonderful,loving parents. Last but not least... It'll be fun to see how Crazy Uncle Brice and Gavin bondthemselves to this little one. This baby will have lots of people to love him/her, including Great-grandparent, Lots of "aunties and uncles", friend and more family.
MY POCKETBOOK: There will be a few situations that presents some monetary decision making, and I must decide now how to handle it. How will I be able to stop buying all kinds of cute and fun thing for the baby. I'm already wringing my hands in the baby isles at Target and clipping coupons for "Babies R us". Yikes...this is gonna be way too fun.
MY HEART: This I do know..... I will have plenty of love for this little one as he or she ignites the portion of my heart reserved for my grandkids. It's already bursting at the seams and I can't wait to pour out that Grandma love....Hugs, kisses, spoiling etc.
It's amazing how grandparents seem so young once you become one. ~Author Unknown

Congrats! Yes, you are way too young but won't that be cool! Just think of all the life events you will be around for...and able to remember:) Kevin's been asked if he's Carson's grandpa, so perhaps you'll be asked if you're your grandchild's Mom! I am so excited for you. I'm at the end stages of giving away my little tykes stuff and you are just starting to obtain it...again! I'll had Brianna & Chris to my prayers. I hope she is feeling well.
