I've been absent for the last few days because my oldest daughter gave birth to my first grandchild, a precious little boy! She ended up having a C-section but both are doing well. His name is Rylan Terize and he weighed 7 lbs, 5 oz., 19 1/2 inches long! He's a real cutie!

Congratulations!! How wonderful for your daughter, and of course for you! I'm a grandma too, and I can say being a grandmother is one of the sweetest rewards in life (besides having our own children.) That's a really beautiful name that she gave him. Have fun...this gramma stuff is fun!!!

congradulations on your grandson and to your daughter, a congrats to her first child. having grandkids is so much fun for you can spoil them then send them home...you get like a second chance. i have 1 grandson and 2 granddaughters and wouldn't trade them for anything. now you will also see how great you did with raising your daughter, for she will teach her child things you taught her and so on. again, congradulations to all of you.

Congradulations! I just became an aunt again on Friday cause my hubbys brother and his wife just had a little girl. It is a happy time when a new baby is in the family and the mom and baby are both healthy

Congratulations. I just read this message. So, after a little more than a week, how is the little one doing? And the parents? I'm sure you are still on cloud nine. Are you going to post any pictures of the little one?

Well I'm actually late responding to this --seems like I don't have as much computer time anymore...I wonder why? They are all doing good. The baby has a bit of a cold but should be over it soon. Thanks for asking!P.S. I've posted a picture but will add a new one for you.

So far she has managed to survive. However, I don't think she will be going back to work. She has a very spoiled baby on her hands but she did her share of the spoiling!

Congratulations! I hope you enjoy his company and dont freak out about anything, it will all be good. My mother wasted all her time freaking out about anything and everything, including the baby's blanket being on the floor. She thought the germs would crawl on them and get to the baby! Have a good laugh with him!!!

Oh we haven't gone that far! I laugh at my daughter when she fusses at me for fussing at her to change his outfits when he has drooled all down the front. She is getting tired of doing laundry. At this point (3 mo) she may as well get used to it! I survived her and then a set of twins so I know she can handle laundry for one baby :)

Congrats! I'm sure you will find that being a grandma is wonderful. There's nothing like loving, cuddling, having a little person love you back and you can get away without changing the diapers. LOL! I have 5 grandchildren. It's great the way they think that Grandma is always right and knows best. hee hee

Thanks! Actually, I was graced with changing his first dirty diaper in the hospital (other than the nursery). So I've been avoiding that duty lately whenever I can! LOL!
