I'm A Grandma Now!

Well I’ve just been too busy this last 2 weeks to sit down and blog but I became a very proud First-Time Grandma to Connor Alexander Payne on Monday, May 26th which was Memorial Day. He came into the world at 3:42 AM. He was 6 lbs 14 ounces and 19 1/2 inches long.

Connor is already on his way to being a spoiled little baby with all the attention he has so far received from both sets of grandparents. His auntie and uncle who live in Hawaii are coming out soon to visit him. All the other great aunts, uncles, cousins and great grandparents have had the opportunity to check him out and think he’s pretty cute.

I of course think is absolutely gorgeous and he came complete with all 10 fingers and 10 toes and a cute little button nose. Not only was everything double checked by both grandma’s right after delivery, but they got the 3rd check from the nurse who proclaimed him a beautiful baby. I definitely think he looks like his daddy! A little like his mommy too!

He is the joy of my life already and I can’t wait to have lots and lots of fun with him! I of course plan on spoiling him and then sending him home to his parents. Isn’t that what all grandma’s do?

Hello World!

Hello everyone! I just wanted to tell you all a little about myself. I live in Northern California with my husband David and my little Brussells Griffon Chewbacca.

We are empty nesters now as both my son and daughter have recently moved out and gotten married in the last year and a half. I will be a Grammy soon to my son’s little baby boy Conner sometime in early June. I am already spoiling him and he isn’t even born yet. I can hardly contain myself as I’m so happy. I wasn’t so sure about being a Grammy when I first heard the news but realized that just because I’m becoming a Grandma doesn’t make me old!

I have a love for aprons and tea related items. As you can tell by my name I love tea and all things related to it including all of the lovely tea items you can get for serving tea and goodies with. I have always had a love of all things old and with a history to them. I am very much a girlie girl and love all things pretty, pink and feminine.

I am a Pink Hatter in the Red Hat Society. In case you don’t know a Pink Hatter is someone who is under 50 in that fun dis-orginazation! A Red Hatter is a women over the age of 50. It is just a fun group of ladies who like to go out and have fun with friends and celebrate themselves at whatever age or stage they are in their lives.

Hugs,
