My daughter-in-law will be giving birth to my first grand-fabulous-baby any day now. Since Cory and Jamie live about two hours away from both Grand-Fabulous-Mother Laurie (me) and Grand-Fabulous-Mother Lisa (Jamie's mom), we have had to make a few rules.
- Because of caller ID, the first words we hear after answering any calls from Jamie's cell phone, Cory's cell phone or Cory and Jamie's house must be "Not yet."
- If Grand-Fabulous-Mother Laurie is out and about with friends, she must, at all times, have a driver on standby ready, willing and able to drive her to Houston on a moment's notice in the likely event that she is more than halfway through her second margarita.
- Grand-Fabulous-Mother Lisa has agreed to indulge in no more than two gin and tonics in any given evening while lounging by her new Grand-Fabulous-Pool.
That's it. Just your normal everyday Grand-Fabulous-Mother rules. Edina and Patsy would be proud.
Excellent rules. This is exciting!
ReplyDeleteOh, how exciting! I hope you'll share some Grand-Fabulous-Baby pictures when the little one finally arrives.
ReplyDeleteYou suppose alcohol fumes bother a baby much?
ReplyDeleteBe careful when you make that trip into Houston!
ReplyDeleteEverybody - You'll see pictures here first! :)
ReplyDeletebaby, baby, baby!!!!
ReplyDeleteYEAH!!!!!!!
Can't wait for pictures.
When are you GRM's going just camp out with the parents to be?
Susan - That would be a wonderful luxury if it was possible.
ReplyDeleteAnything is possible, its just a question of priorities, but I suppose unemployed grand-fabulous-mothers is not such a good thing for a new grand-fabulous-baby.
ReplyDeleteYou guys could alternate weekends?
Susan - Priorities?
