But the highlight of the last few months has with out doubt been the preparations for my first Grandchild....... in fact my first Grandson, yes, we are having a little boy and we couldn't be more excited. I have been posting a few blogs on my "Being Granny" blog...........
A couple of weeks ago we had the stork party........ as my life has been so hectic Kira was getting worried that she was not having one, as I just had so much on my plate, but with the help of a friend, Kira thought we were going to take some baby pictures of my "Granty" Child Reuben....... I told her I forgot a couple of the props at home........ and there was everyone......... all 40 of them and 10 children..............
But what a day it was, we played games, pass the parcel, and the peg game where you are not allowed to cross your legs, or the person who notices takes your peg, and at the end the one with the most pegs gets a price.
The funniest thing was when Kira and her sister in law were trying to feed one another baby food blind folded...... that was the "prize" in the middle of the pass the parcel.
She was so blessed, I think it is a tribute to her, how much people spoilt her, the party started at 2pm, and I eventually got Kira home just before 8 o'clock.
What a lot of hard work......... but worth every minute .............
How fun and congrats to you and your daughter! You will be a wonderful Grandma I'm sure. Think of all the great shopping and I don't care what people say...there are really cute clothes and toys for boys! (Having raised 4 boys, I should know!) I loved the games and I might have to steal some of those ideas for any future showers in our family. Take some time for you in all those busy scheduled days! Now I need to find your other blog!
ReplyDeleteHow exciting! Looks like you all had a great time! The baby food game must have been messy, but fun! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun shower, with lots of people there! Congratulations, Grandma (it took me awhile to get used to that name...) You're going to have a lot of fun ahead of you. We have both girls, and one little boy in our bunch, so we get to enjoy it all. Have fun!
ReplyDeleteHi Karen, it's so nice hearing from you again. Wow, you've been a busy lady. Congratulations on the announcement of you new baby boy grandchild. Being a grandma is so special.
ReplyDeleteFeeding baby food blindfolded was played at my daughter's baby shower and she sent me photos. It was hilarious.
I wouldn't fare too good on the Peg game as I mostly sit with my legs crossed.
Thanks for sharing the lovely pictures. JB
Oh what a lovely tradition! I love your stork party and how lovely with all you are doing you managed to surprise the mom!
