WOW CONGRATULATIONS JIM!!! xx

 

[HelenG]

Sorry to hijack Abz but

Congratulations Grand Jim! Olivia looks absolutely gorgeous. Her dad looks well chuffed (hope that means proud in your neck of the woods) if not a little cream-crackered!

Hope all are doing well - are they home yet?

Just back from the visit, we weren't allowed to hold her and Carol was fast asleep.

Such brilliant news Jim - always great when a baby is safely delivered and cuddlable - such a pity you didn't get your cuddle but there is plenty of time I bet you're the cat that got the cream and so you should be Grandad x

 

[Jim]

It was lovely to see her, and with the hospital having the novo virus it's better that contact is limited to Mummy and daddy really, can't wait to get them home though.

 

[Smiley Bon]

Aw congratulations again Jim She looks so bonny aw. Hope she can come home soon and you get your cuddle


Good luck at the scan today Abz

 

[HelenG]

Good luck for your scan today Abz - can't wait to see the pics!

 

[Jim]

Yes abz, good luck with the scan today love.

 

[Gemstone]

Jim I'm sure you'll make up for lost time - you'll love every minute x

Abz - Good luck with the scan x

 

[Jim]

I'm sure I will, it's strange really, I feel all protective, seeing her has somehow kicked in feelings I haven't had for years.

 

[Gemstone]

Ahhhhh..... Jim - you're just a big (well not so big really) softee!!!!

 

[clarri]

Abz,

[Jim]

I sure am Gem,

thanks Clarri love.

 

[abz]

jim, she is absolutely stunning.

well here is my news. IT'S A GIRL

well, she was 80% sure and they usually say that to cover themselves really. i'm not one for pink really so it won't affect what i buy that much, but if it's a boy it may end up with slightly girlie baby grows hee.

[clarri]

did you get a piccie Abz?? xx

 

[Gemstone]

Congrats Abz - you can think of names now x

 

[jennybeth79]

Congrats Abz ....my house went pink mad when I had Katie I think having two boys b4 her made it worse .....

 

[abz]

i'm not that keen on pink jenny so hopefully there won't be too much of a pink explosion, although i did have pink candystripe wallpaper when i was about eight... ha.

as for names, well i thought of isobel yesterday and thomas really likes that one, so that's now on our list and top of thomas's i think. we also like lily, and matilda (although that's my mum's favourite and she's really pushing for it) and eva (eeeeva) which is actually danish yet pronouncable by english folk which helps

i think initial clothing etc won't be much of a problem. it's all babygroes and if i have a boy and it ends up in a babygrow with a fairy on it, then so be it, but i'll probably just get ones with animals etc on, and then it doesn't matter and i'll splash out a bit more when everything is definate buying proper clothes for teeny babies tends to be more trouble than it's worth from what i've heard. and the border i've seen for the nursery could be for either a boy or a girl, so again, it doesn't matter

going to have to get used to calling my tummy 'she' now
