Major announcement from Baby Alex, five months old next week...

Liam said, "Did you know there's another baby in Mama's tummy? I'm going to get my sister. And
I am going to take care of her like I do Baby Alex." He really does. If the baby whimpers, he runs right to him to talk to him or soothe him.

I sure hope Alex and the baby don't share the same birth date. Mama thinks it's going to be close. She has doctor's appointment at end of month.

They are tossing around names. I'm just calling it Oopsie. Actually we were at the casino when the text picture of Alex arrived. The picture had to be enlarged so we could read it on my phone. We are so dense. Bill said, "Well he is a heavy little guy, and he is going to be big. But that sure isn't nice to call HIM the big brother. Don't you think they should have given that shirt to Liam?"

I said, "Well he is much bigger than Liam when he was this age, and he does have big feet...OH MY GOSH! They're pregnant again."

I started crying and Bill handed me a twenty dollar bill and said, "Here, wipe your tears." At that moment he hit a $200 jackpot and I hit $50. I called my granddaughter and said, "I am calling this baby Money Bags."

So a lot of adjustments will have to be made, but God doesn't make mistakes. All babies are precious. Praying for a girl. 

Our sweet Liam was playing with his little buddy on toy phones. He said, "Hello?" My daughter said she thought they were going to play Bob the Builder, but when the other child didn't answer, Liam said, "Hello?! I can't believe it's YOU and you're calling me HERE, Paw-Paw Bill. So and so (named names) isn't listening, and baby Alex is crying, and I could sure use some of your magic about now."
Translation: Oreo cookies which Paw-Paw pretends to find behind Liam's ear.

SO, HERE WE GROW AGAIN!

So, I showed this picture of Alex to HeWHo is an idiot and he says, "Oh, he's cute." I said "read the shirt and tell me what you think it means" he says. well the kid must have a little brother or sister. I say, "he is only 5 months old!" He says, "so." Makes me wonder about him.
You will fall in love with the new little bundle, I am sure of it!

Oh my gosh, Linda. That was very surprising and happy news. Your granddaughter is a brave woman! Ohhhh, wouldn't it be wonderful if their third child is a little girl? Take care. Susan

Wow! What a surprise! I'm as dense as Kathy's HeWho. I didn't get it, either. I just thought, like Bill, that it was because Alex is a big little guy. Baby Moneybags, indeed! No coincidences. This baby was meant to be. Congrats to the future repeat parents.

If the new baby ends up as cute as Liam or Alex, Ashley might want a few more...
