Congratulations, Granny! *(Say goodbye to your wallet and your credit card, heh, heh,) It's already been smokin'! lolol Sorry about the probs with your father, and isn't that always the way - everyone in the hospital is always at least two city blocks away by th4e time you navigate the entrances, elevators etc. Hope that problem works out a well as the baby did. Well, they did (thankfully!) send him to the rehab. He's looking good, good color and, best of all, good attitude! No prognosis on when he gets to go home but at least he's improving. Thanks for all the well wishes, Olwyn Mary. Joan |

So Joan, are you Grandma or Nana, or what? * I know this spoiled beauty is going to adore you and she needs to call you something. I was talking about this with Sheena last week. I think I want to be called Grandmama. I don't want to be Grandma Erickson (that's my Ddeparted MIL), I heartily dislike Nana, and my mom is Grandma (or Great Grandma). I'm guessing Dani's mom will be Grandma, but I haven't asked her. I hope your dad's recovery is swift and uneventful. Thanks! It seems he's getting stronger every day. When the nurses ask him if he wants to stop or continue, he usually says continue! Yaay! Joan |

Woooohoooo!!! What a gorgeous little girl, Joan! Hasn't she got the sweetest little baby mouth? Yes, it's just *tiny*! She's already starting to lose that lovely, soft, soft head of hair. Please give Addison a big kiss from Auntie Trisha and tell her 'Welcome!' from me. Done! Joan |

Happy, happy new Grandma day! *Congrats, Joan, and glad that all is fine with your DIL and new little darling. *Great name! DS has made it known he doesn't like Addie, so she will be Addison. We told him to expect something very different when she gets to school! lol Ouch - but glad to hear that your dad is healing now, and will have the time and place for a good recuperation. Yes, now that he's in the rehab, he's looking much better and is determined to get home again. Yay! Again, congrats! Thanks a bunch, Ellice! Joan |

Congratulations to all of you! What a wonderful event. You've been "promoted" from DM to DGM! And I can imagine your mom is overjoyed to be promoted to DGGM. Thanks, Sue! Being a DGGM is old hat for her...Addison is her 12th, with 2 more on the way! Hugs for baby Addison and your DF. Thanks! As for size, it must be those hearty Scandinavian genes. More likely the German! DH is half Swede, half German and I'm nearly all German. Dani's dad is at least partly German but I'm not sure what her mom is. One of these days I'll have to ask her about her mom so I'll know just how much German Addison is! lol Joan |

I'm guessing Dani's mom will be Grandma, but I haven't asked her. Ask first!~ You never know. My grandmother insisted on being "Mama", because she thought she was too young to be a grandma, and one of her nieces, instructed to call her GM (my ggm)"grandmama" couldn't get her tongue around it, so shortened it to "mama". Result - when my bros and I got to be teenagers we just addressed gm as "Nellie" (her name). I am grandma to my dd's kids, but in the neighborhood the little kids couldn't pronounce my name properly, so I became "Grandma Olwyn". When ds had kids, his mil, who lives close by, became "grandma", so I just stuck with Grandma Olwyn. Olwyn Mary in New Orleans |
