Last week was exciting!  My first grandchild arrived, with a little bit of drama; Seonaid developed pre-eclampsia and was hospitalised, then induced. Things never got out of control, but it was a bit stressful waiting for news. 
 Everything was fine in the end, and we welcomed Isla Rose into the family.
She is a delicate little girl, only 6.5 pounds, and is a very calm, patient baby.  She was born on my son's birthday, which we think was excellent timing, as there's no chance of forgetting the date. Her uncle thought it was the best birthday present.
So now I"m a legitimate grandma, not just practicing with my great niece and nephews.  I'm looking forward to this!
