My Sons' Son Will Be Born In August

   Posted by: jude   in Pappy and Nana

My Son called tonight and it was so unexpected of him that I was afraid to call back because I thought there might have been a miscarriage. If you know my son and his history then you would understand my dread when I get an unexpected phone call. Chris lost their first baby and if anything would happen with this one, I honestly think he would lose it.

Thank God it was happy news and he wanted to let me know that they had done the 3D sonograms or ultrasounds and he just wanted us to know that they saw some really good pictures of the baby and have the CD so I can see it and hopefully make a copy when we go to Kentucky in August. They decided on Ethan David which I like, he decided against Eric David Jr, but the initials are the same.

I want to try and time it so that I will be there when it’s born, but even though they have been told that it will be Aug 6th or the 8th and not my birthday which is the 7th since it’s a first child and at 38 it could be early or late, but I’m hoping it will be born on my birthday, now how great of a present would that be?

Eric said it looks just like him except the jaw line which is his wife’s and he says he has lots of hair which Eric did not. They were able to see that he had all his parts and that takes a worry off new parents especially older ones. Since she’s a nurse she would know any signs to look out for if something wasn’t right and she has had all test done to insure everything is okay.

It wont be long and now that it’s getting nearer I am getting more excited. I could tell by the way he was talking that he hoped when we come down that I will stay a lot longer than was originally planned. Of course Bill can’t, but I could and either take a bus back because I’m frugal or I could fly, but I’ll have to wait and see. I’m going to bed because I need to get up early in the morning.

That’s great news. I know exactly how you feel as I had the same experience years before.
Grandchildren are the joys of old age (grins),not that I’m saying you are old. It’s just a matter of perspective. Think young and you are young.
Congratulations on a new family member!
