Everyone except meGrandBeast!
Congratulations Beasty, I hope everyone is happy, safe and well
Wife departed for Spain Saturday morning (had to get up at 4 to take her and another daughter to the airport) safe in the knowledge the baby was not due for 4 weeks
8pm, I'm settling in the WattBike when daughter number 3 screams "come quickly dad - waters have broken"
Straight down to the Rotunda, not a false alarm, but some time off yet. Drive back home at 11 (think they throw everyone out then)
Sunday morning took 2 youngest to their showjumping (came 2nd in their inter-schools - not bad as best 3 of 4 count and they were the only team with only 3 members)
After that got in car, turn radio on for the Rugby, then get a message showing up on the watch. Baby's arrived 6lb 14oz (yes at nearly 4 weeks early:eek:)
So then advised the new grandmother (didn't want to panic her as there was nothing she could do from Spain). Since then I've been sorting out her flight (as well as picking all the baby stuff up from Mothercare). By the time she agreed which flight she's coming back on the price had gone up a hundred quid
Should have been heading to the airport for her 12.20 arrival, but plane's now delayed until 1:30am.....
Baby and mother due out some time tomorrow0 -

I've been informed by my own dad that the grand kids are infinitely more enjoyable than his own offspring..... me as he can just hand them back when nappies need changing , acting out etc.
Unreal to see your own mam and dad with the first grandchild though and then getting a child seat for the car was like a life milestone to them. My mam would have been someone who'd have got something for herself when in town doing the shopping at the weekend, now the youngest gets dropped off with a dunnes or pennies bag under the buggy and my dad is delighted as the clutter comes to our house now.0 -

Sounds like a whirlwind few days. Congratulations!

They are, it is not quite as simple as handing them back but you are infinitely more at ease as you have nothing to worry about. I still change the nappies but so far far less stressful than looking after my own.0 -
