I knew it was just a matter of time, for years she had been yearning to become a mommy...Last week we received a call from my daughter Maude. Her voice on the phone was very excited when she told us " that's it ! i am pregnant !! ".... Oh my gosh, i am going to be a granny i thought ...Am i happy ? Considering the picture you see here, it doesn't look so. (laughs)
Of course i am happy !!! Who wouldn't be happy by such wonderful news ?
Maude will turn 24 in april, but as long as i can remember, she wanted to be a mom. So as soon as she graduated from university last year, she went on with her plan. She is a very determined person, when she decides she wants something, she gets it. Along with her boyfriend, she bought her first house while she was still studying at university. Last year they bought a lot behind our house and they will probably start building their new hou
se this summer. It is wonderful, knowing our daughter will live next to us. My first daughter
Geneviève ( She and Maude are only 11 months apart ) is studying abroad in Brussels and i miss her everyday. We still have young Anne ( 18 ) living with us, thank God. I hope she wont leave soon, i want to keep her close to me a little bit more. Awww, mommies whatever age the youngest is, we still consider them our little baby. Anyways, can you imagine ?!? I am going to be a granny ? I am so very excited! After i gave birth to my 3rd daughter, hubby ran to the doctor to have his " thing " fixed. :) Was scared i would make more babies. That would have been probably the case. I was very sad, knowing Anne would be my last child. I wished i had 4 or 5. Being a grandmother has its privileges though . And i am lucky my daughter will be so close by. I will have the opportunity to see and love that little thing anytime i want. I am already thinking of all the knitting and sewing projects i want to make. If some of you have some great links on knitting and sewing babies clothes, i would love it if you could share some of them.
I can't wait to show you some pics of my daughter's growing belly. But that will take some time. Baby is due only in mid-october. I'll keep you posted with more details of her pregnancy.
Have a lovely day everyone ♥
I was babysitting little Jacob yesterday and he was sleeping soundly on the couch as i was fixing dinner in the kitchen and keeping an eye on him. Daughter Anne ( auntie Anne ) cuddled next to him and took pictures with her cell phone. I was amazed at the results. This picture of them both is so beautiful, so moving, i will have to make a copy and frame it...
Jacob is one whole week already. He is so cute and such a nice little baby. Daughter Maude met some problems the first few days with breast feeding, but all is going fine now and Jacob has a giant appetite. Already he seems to be changing. So cute and huggable ♥
Little Jacob was born october 9th, a week before my daughter was due. All went quite well and my daughter Maude is recovering quickly. We are all very happy to welcome this little sweet boy in our family. Jacob is so sweet, my heart is melting each time i hold him in my arms or watch him sleep soundly. He smells so good, his skin is so soft, his fingers so tiny, but oh, sooo long. I can hear him as i am writing this, he is waking up, asking for his milk. My daughter and her hubby have been staying with us for the past 3 months. Their new house is almost ready, being constructed right behind ours. So that means i can see little Jacob whenever i want, that is really wonderful. This first week with the baby was quite hectic as i had to give some support. It did not give me much free time to work in my studio, but things are starting to get a bit better. Mommy Maude is having a chance to sleep a little more during the night. Oh, this brings me back to such happy and sometimes not so happy ( more desperate ) memories.
