Swan I thought so but hang on cos of the time difference it's 28th here now so your birthday's on 27th isn't it? I was wishing you Happy Birthday yesterday...confused!
Hmmm. Well, you said she was born three hours before you posted, which would be about six hours ago? It's 6 right now where I am, so it's possible she was born while it was still the 27th here. There's still hope!!!

She was born at 7.19 GMT+1 which is our summertime but it'd be fair to say you were probably still celebrating so I'll count that! I'll not forget your birthday now Swan. You're a quarter of a century older than my grand daughter!
And a Taurean Chypmunk, whatever fine qualities that holds :D

Mainly stubborn obstinacy but that does come with a very small side-plate of unbelievable intelligence and sparkling wit plus outrageously good looks and taste ;)
(the latter part of the above is based totally on reading between the lines of what my good wife calls me and massaging information where necessary)
Wow great !! Congrats Christine !!

Sorry - I think that was probably me actually ... I'm blaming it on either the prunes for desert yesterday or the cabbage and bacon at lunchtime today :blush:

Oh stop that, you munkey. Babies make me all googley. I was a first time auntie when I was a lil kid and I still feel the same when there's an announcement. So happy for Christine.
Let the games begin. Grandmama time is special.

ha yeah they were telling me off yesterday cos I let their little dog sleep on our bed while I was dog sitting while they were in hospital having the baby. I said wait till I babysit the baby when she's a bit older...spoiling! oh yeah man, looking forward to it. Our son said to me later, mum don;t let her have too many sweets...I'm like Jim, she's not a day old yet! give me time!
