My mom was a grandma at 35 (she was 18, my sister was 17) and all I think is I have just over a year until I am 35 and there is no way on this green earth that I would want to be a g-ma yet-altho, my kiddos are only 9 & 12 so there would be some major problems there. My mom said the best thing about being a g-ma so young, is having energy to do things with them and being able to hold, rock, carry without paying for it in pain the next day. You'll be great and love every minute I'm sure. Congrats!

I just turned 34 I had her at 15, she will be 19 in a few months. Not planning on being her DCP though- We do a full day preschool and it is VERY difficult to focus on that w/ a baby in the mix. There is no way she could stay home with the baby though so unless she/I find someone I trust I may end up trying to make it work!

:hug::hug: about the dr visit, I sure know how the bad ones are!!!

And I'd be excited about the caterpillars too!!

We moved here last November. I grew up a mile from here. My dad lives a mile from here also. This house is in the middle of the woods. As we're our other houses. Well, this summer, our first one here, we started finding HUNDREDS of these weird grasshopper things. Hundreds and thousands of them. They were at first teeny tiny black grasshoppers with an orange stripe. We started googling and apparently they are called eastern lubber grasshoppers, indigenous to is area. Myself, my husband, and my dad etc had NEVER seen them before. We even asked older locals. They had never seen them either!!

Well, after their FIFTH molt, they turn into HUGE HUGE weird looking grasshoppers with wings. They get so big they can barely hop!!

Look them up sometime they are AMAZING!!

It's a good thing our garden is at e family land where these dont live because they eat a garden in days.

But it's weird nobody around here has never seen em before.

were they locust?

I think I just talked myself and DH into getting a dog this weekend! ::happyface We'll ahve to see...I emailed the shelter with a couple questions but I am in LOVE lovethislovethislovethis! She needs a home and I need a doggy.

I'm happy to find so many other people who watch Call the Midwives! And got my MP and P&F references! :: and AcornMama--last night my sisters came over and we watched Doctor Who like we do every week.

Biggest geek in the 'Verse!

Silver, my daughter went to San Diego a few months ago to that geek convention... some actors from Dr Who were there... not sure which one but she loved it

lovethislovethislovethisThe journal idea. That will be something so special to her!

I think I'm stealing it. Like right now, before I forget. I wish I would have started one at least when she was born, but two months in is okay.

Yes, definitely doing it. Thanks LMM!!

Wow. Busy week around the forum eh? Lots of...action It was the full moon, so I'm not entirely surprised, but let's put the hard feelings and drama llamas aside and find something more interesting to do.

However, I'm tapped out of ideas. So we'll go for a nice, "Whatcha doin'?"

(Yes, I've just quoted Monty Python and Phineas and Ferb both within like, ten lines. Or less. Haha! I'm a total geek)

You are awesome. And I am a total geek too!

So I had to reread that in the "Phineas and Ferb" voice Thanks for the laugh!

Me too!

Anyway.... what am I doing? Enjoying a root beer float (haven't had one in forever) and relishing in the fact that my vacation started approx 5 hours ago. My MIL and her husband are coming into town from across the country tomorrow for the week. We get along so well and it's been two years since we've seen them.
