Auntie Grandma

Currently Reading: Still reading Lone Star Lycan by Regina Carlysle:) In print, I received Jodi Picoult's latest, Change of Heart, and The Shack by Wm Paul Young.



Today is the Big Day! Samantha is going to be a mommy sometime today. Her due date was Christmas, but since her boyfriend A lives in Kentucky and has to return to school next week, the dr is inducing labor this morning. Welcome Baby Shaant Alan William Denkins, born at 9:10 pm:)

So why the Aunt Grandma? S calls me Mom, and her little sister calls me Aunt Molly. Baby Shaun will grow up hearing me called both, and as with my own little one, who grew accustomed to hearing 'Aunt Molly' during his first year of life, soon called me 'Aunt Mommy'.

Also on the agenda today, my honorary grandkids are arriving this afternoon. Miss Drama Queen is bringing her Easy Bake Oven (I always wanted one growing up, but Mom said no, I could learn to use the real one!) and Mr. Energy is looking forward to playing with W. Both kids are looking forward to being with 'Uncle Dad and Aunt Mommy' until Sunday.

No Duh!
Saw on the news yesterday that Amazon.com sold more e-books than print books on Christmas Day. The news anchors concluded that the 'E-readers, like the Kindle, were popular gifts and everyone who received one went to the site and bought books!'

Ohhhhh a new baby! I hope the delivery goes smoothly. How exciting! Umm...I'm with you on the Easy Bake Oven. Always wanted one but my practical mom said no, use the kitchen we already have. Siiiigh. I think she secretly thought I'd just make a big fat mess.

Baby arrived at 9:10 pm! I wonder if he'll appreciate his birthing progress updated all over facebook??
