Its a girl
 
Hi all just wanted to share some rather special news tonight,
I have just become a grandparent for the first time to a gorgeous little girl called Layla Grace rose :wub: she was born at 9.30 this evening and weighed in at 8Ib 12oz after an emergency cesarian,


Poor mum had a rough time was 2 weeks over due and is tiny, i still can't workout where she put her :rofl:

I am going to see her tomorrow and can't wait, :thumbsup:

Mum is doing well considering she had a rough time awww they look too young to have a baby yet she is the same age as i was when i had Laylas dad :blink:
just want to wrap them all in cotton wool and protect them from the world :wub: Our other son was there as well who is going to be a dad himself in a few weeks :eek: not again i hear you say ;)

Thank you all for your good wishes, take care and God Bless xx

Probably a bit the worse for wear today, his mates were all taking him out last night :blink:

Told them after the last time they had better make sure they all stick together :( they all play for the Askiens Rugby club which i just found out is the oldest Rugby club, and 150 years old this year ( hope i got that useless bit of information right ;))

So there will be a lot of very drunk great big rugby players with hangovers this morning :rofl:

Apart from that he is on leave for 2 weeks and is a bit shell shocked and tired :rofl: how does he think the mum is feeling :rofl:

saskia65 Aug 17th 2008 5:54 pm

Re: Its a girl
 
Aw a rugby boy, what a star!

You're obviously very proud of him, and it sounds rightly so.

I've gone all warm and fuzzy and soft focus for a Monday. :wub:
