Both Brent and Alex agreed that they couldn't see me as Nan.... it just didn't fit......so.....Im a Grandma! I was just getting used to calling myself Nan too...oh well....Grandma Mardi it is!
Anyway..... THANK YOU so much for all the congratulatory messages .. we are so very proud of her....and its so lovely that so many of you have taken the time to comment and share in our excitement...
Ive begun scrap booking her already....shes such an adorable and compliant subject....but layouts will have to wait...because tonight I want to share a few more photos....
She is... so far....such a good bub too.... sleeping.....feeding ....sleeping... barely a peep out of her....I hope it lasts for them... and she continues to be as relaxed and happy as she is now.So...just before I go.....here is a photo that Briony took on her camera...its a little blurry and my hair is standing on end... but it does show how perfectly she fits in my arms...she's just my size...
Ohhh Mardi, Anna-bella is such a cute little dot. Alot of clucking happening here! I especially love that first picture, the lighting, her little chubby, soft cheeks and the way her bottom lip is tucked under the top. She's beautiful Enjoy!

You don't look like a Grandma to me ... but maybe that's because my Grandma was 71 when I was born!
