Yay For Grandma!
Posted: 04-15-06 22:04pm

Oh god, my mom would kill me if she knew I called her "grandma." lol. She has to think of something else for her grandkids to call her becuase she thinks grandma makes her sound old. Lol. She's weird.

Anyway, my mom got me a whole bunch of baby clothes, and they are soooo cute. Omigosh, I want him here now so I can dress him up. Lol. One of my favorites is a onesie that says "d is for duck" on the front with a little duck. And on the butt is a duck's head with a caterpillar crawling on it, and the duck has three little loops of yellow yarn for feathers on top of his head. Lol.

I'm a dork, but I can't help myself.

Sometimes I wish baby clothes came in adult sizes, they're so cute and cozy-looking. That onesie with the ducks sounds adorable, .Lalee! Congrats on the boy :)

Ahh! Puppies!! Just as cute, if not cuter. My boyfriend doesn't want kids right now, but I sort of wish he did so I could indulge in all the baby items. I've picked up a pig and a chick stuffed animals at pottery barn kids, though - they reside on our couch.

The day we found out we were having a boy, my bf bought me a beanie baby giraffe. He was in a basket of beanie animals for sale for march of dimes at my doctors office. So now, logan is getting a safari-themed room, and that's where the giraffe will go.

It's awesome you already have an idea of how the room will look. A safari theme - I like! I also love the name logan. All the best to you and your bf, and a very healthy pregnancy :)

baby onsie sounds cute! If your mom doesn't want to be called grandma she could be called meme(there are suppose to be marks over the e's but idk how to do that) or nana? My mom wants my neice and nephews to call her grummy,lol.I think thats a little weird but whatever floats ur boat!

well, she can't be nana cause I already have a nana... My mom's mom. Bf's parents already have "names" cause they already have grandchildren. His mom is grand-d (short for grandma dee), and his dad is "grandpa" even though his older grandchildren call him "grandfather." I just think "grandfather" sound so impersonal and it doesn't fit him .A.T. A.L.L!!!.

There's this one kid that bf's parents babysit sometimes who is just the cutest little thing. He's about 10, I think, and has a mental handicap, and he calls bf's dad "hoho" (his name is howard). So I told my bf I was gonna get logan to call him "papa hoho" lol.

I went to my mom's house this weekend and she took me and my hubby upstairs to show us the baby clothes she got. I'm not pregnant, I don't think and she doesn't know i'm off birth control. I'm waiting to see if my period comes. I hate waiting every month. Do you think that was a pretty big hint. Lol. We've been married 3 years almost and not once has my mother mentioned baby stuff. I just think it was cute.

It's weird because I think i'm ready, and everyone in our family is on the baby wagon too. My husband on the other hand, said just yesterday that he doesn't want kids yet because he's used to having his time all to himself and it scares him. Here's the weird part....He told me to stop birth control and refuses to use any protection. I'd say that's pretty much asking for it. Don't you?? Lol

i know once it happens he'll be happy. It's scary for me too, just something we'll have to do together. It's all in .G.O.D.S time, which is perfect. I have told him that it's true that your time will be different with a baby, but a baby adds a whole new dimension to your life.

What do you girls think I should do to make my husband more at ease??

Lol,i don't think you can,not until it happens.I think almost all guys are like that,all scared of having a kid.I think with the whole i'm not ready to have one yet,but then not using any protection,is like saying "if/when it happens,it happens".J just mo!

A lot of guys are like that, once the baby comes, they feel kind of forgotten but their are other times when they have this little buddy, especially when they get a little older, and then their are times that they are soo excited, my flesh and blood, they are funny to watch in the birthing room, you would think they are the ones that need a gurney(lol)! Some just pass out and do need the gurney. You know what the women are going through, most of the time.

They should make more baby clothes with other family members names included not just the usual mum and dad ones. Like 'i love my nan' or 'my grandad is the best' lol stuff similar to the mum and dad ones. That would be cool as those people are important too.
