I checked my email first thing this morning and BAM! there in my in-box, from Mrs. Girl, were instructions on how to get to the hospital when the time comes for FB* to be born.
It gave me a thrill. This thing is gettin’ real, y’all.
Not that it isn’t already, but you know how you anticipate an event, but you are still a ways out, it doesn’t seem as real as when it’s THISCLOSE!
We are getting sooo close.
The email was a delightful missive of where snacks could be located while we wait, where we should meet, and what might be expected on the birthday of our new little family member. As I read, I was imagining the day and the steps we’ll take before it occurs.
Chill-inducing!
Forgive me my giddiness, but this is my first grandchild and I can”t seem to contain the excitement.
I can’t wait to meet that little crumb-cruncher.
Mrs. Tucker loves you, baby!

Ooooo, having a pre-packed bag...genius! If only I had a teleporter or worm-hole.

I don't think the giddyness fades even if you have a big dogpile of grandchildren. When my water broke with Lillian, I called my parents at 2 am to tell them. Those fools were dressed, hair fixed, and wearing makeup and everything, and BEAT ME TO THE HOSPITAL. The nurses thought it was hilarious.

hahahahaha. Wait, you think that's weird?!
I will most likely look a'fright (and you know I'll post pics of that frightfulness for a lol), but I don't think we'll beat them there as we have a 4-5 hour car ride. BOOOOO!
