Yesterday in Chicago, my lovely daughter-in-law after an epic labor of over 24 hours brought Lennox David into the world. He is perfect. He weighed 6lbs and 4oz at birth.
My son wept openly when his son was born. I would have loved to be nearer as all of this was happening. I'll see them in two weeks when I go for a quick visit. I will bring presents and help where I can.
I am not authorized to post photos of the little guy at this time. I will post photos when it is properly sanctioned.
That's me a grandmother now. It also bumps my mother up a grade to great grandmother. Yipee! I love babies and I love that my family continues to grow and I don't have to do anything!

Congratulations on your new status as Grandma.
Oh yes you do.... being a grandma doesn't mean that you don't have to do anything! Gotta remember names, birthdays, buy toys, send letters, tell stories etc etc , it's never ending and it''s SO MUCH FUN!
First thing to do is to decide what you're going to be called.... so many possibilities. Granny, Grandma, Nana, Nanny, Grandmama......
..... and Congratulations!
Best wishes to the new grandma and great grandma (I read her blog regularly)!
The execrable great-grandma prints photo without proper sanction!!
Congratulations to the new Grandma! I chose "Nana" for myself (after my own Irish grandmother), but often, the baby comes up with his own version of whatever you pick. Can't wait to see you here! --Cousin Susan
