Coming Soon.........



Meet Logan! This is an ultrasound picture of my soon to be born DGS! He's due to make his entrance into the world tonight starting at 10PM! My oldest, Jessica, is due to be induced at 10PM. I know what you're thinking...10 at NIGHT?! Yeah, at night! I plan to sleep through this delivery....ha ha! At least that's what I keep telling her, I mean she took like 2 1/2 days to get her herself! I should be able to sleep through this one right?! So, here's the big discussion right now! I really don't care for being called Grandma, Nana, Nanny, or any of those sorts of names. It's just not what I'm comfortable being called! To me, that's a factor I think should be taken into consideration! I have a friend who's DGD called her "Bella" and I just loved it! I always said if and when I have DGK, I want to be called that too! I am part Italian so it would be like embracing my Italian side through more then just my stomach! Huh?! I love pasta! Anyway, I toyed with "Grammy" for a bit too. I mean, being associated with a coveted gold statue is intriguing...! LOL! Anyway, how did you decide what your DGK's would call you?! I think it should be what I'm comfortable with! Okay I have operators standing by for your comments now.....

How exciting. You are definitely a Bella. I wish your daughter and the baby well. Can't wait to see some photos. (hint:hint)

Oooh what an exciting time for you all! I LOVE kids! And my in-laws and family would all love it if we kept on having them. haha! My MIL is called Grammy by my kiddos and nephew. It's a fun term. I do love "Bella" though (even before the Twilight madness!). It's very hip sounding. Congratulations to your family!!

Congrats! No help here on what to be called since I have no DGK's but, both of my kids called my folks different things . . .it was what they felt like saying.

Personally, I think Bella would be great for you! We Italian girls gotta stick together!

Oma said...

When my DD told us that we were to become grandparents; I told her that I wanted to be called Oma because of my Dutch background. My DH is Opa. I have 2 cutie patootie granddaughters and the 21 month old calls us Ama and Apa. I'm too young (59) to be called Granny!

Sharon said...

Myself when little, and DD have always used the Grandma/Grandpa and the last name (Grandma Klein), but....since you don't like that how about the German Oma?

congrats on the new little one Michelle! Our kids use Granny & Pappa on one side of the family and Nama & Dampa on the other....I'm sure it'll turn into gramma and grampa soon....but now we enjoy her variations!!
