Waiting for Baby

This is a photo of the baby shower cake from the shower we gave our daughter last time!

We are still waiting for our new grandson to arrive. He was due a week ago. Our daughter is in the hospital right now and we have been waiting to hear. Our son-in-law has texted us every few hours, but so far she has not delivered. Cross your fingers and say a prayer that everything goes smoothly! I've included a photo of the baby shower cake from the shower we gave for our daughter before the first baby was born. UPDATE: The baby has arrived! Now I am really going to be busy until early December!!

@JudyEv When I gave births naturally I only had 24 hours after the births to stay in the hospital. My friends who had c-sections stayed few days longer back then...

I have two grandchildren born this year coming from my eldest and 2nd sons. Though the 2nd grandchild is only due in December. I am as excited as you are to receive a new addition to the family. I hope your daughter have a safe delivery.

@DeborahDiane Totally agree with you. I have did it twice for having birth by C-section. It is really hard moment and amazing moment too. I can't forget the critical time for having birth...
