Okay what a crazy last few days. Phew, I am glad the baby is home, or at least a temporary home. A few of you guys may know the fact that my baby girl Kristina got pregnant at the extremely young age of 15. Without going into detail of the pressure it put on me and the rest of the family I will just say that we made it this far and things are looking great. Her boyfriend is in the picture and seems to really care for my baby and their baby (sigh). I have stopped kicking myself although I know some of my rules are very laxed. Oh I definitely did not give her the okay to have sex, but I allowed her to be in situations where I should have known better than to trust two young teenagers. Oh well whats done is done and I can say that I am very happy to have a wonderful grandaughter. My house is not the ideal place for a newborn baby so she is living with her Father and my daughter along with his parents for the time being. They are fawning over Allison too and although there is a bit of a language barrier (they are from Brazil) I can sense a very loving atmosphere in their home. Another 2 or three weeks from now will be a different story though. I am definitely not allowing my 15 year old daughter to move out so we will have to work out something. Okay now for the fun stuff: Allison was 6 lbs when she was born and has the biggest dark blue eyes I have ever seen. Her mother is a redhead and her father has jet black hair. As of now she is quite the baldy and we have no idea what color her hair will be, but Im thinking it will be dark. She has her mothers (and my) nose, and her Fathers chin. She is very quiet and sleeps all the time which I know from experience is a bit lucky thus far because my kids didnt sleep much more than a couple of hours at first. She has had her first checkup and everything is great. I am going to go visit her tonight and get a bunch of pictures so I hope to have some to post soon. I have a bunch now but they all look the same. Thanks again everyone for the kind thoughts and I will keep you all updated on things as they happen.
