Just the Right Amount

A sister to M & L
and a cousin to I
Especially after false labour way back in the first week of August, it's been quite a holding-pattern of a month waiting for our newest (third) granddaughter: 9 lbs and 9 days late! I'm so impressed by my daughter's resolve.  

But she's finally here: another M, her name a nod to my Grandmother and her middle name for my daughter's grandmother. Imagine being so fortunate to be named after two grandmas...that seems to me like just the right amount of grammatude, and I can't wait.

I too named my children after a grandparent and a great-grandparents, and feel really good about connecting them in this way.
Congratulations, Grandpop, on the latest addition!

Congratulations! Good for your daughter standing her ground. There is too much interference with mom's and due dates, it just causes more problems. My first baby was 9lbs. That hurts.

Codex: Congrats. Wonderfully named after a grandmother similar to mine. *shoulder pat*
