     Sofie came to Calgary to welcome her new cousin Elizabeth.  Sofie got here Friday night and Elizabeth arrived Saturday morning.  Six pounds seven ounces of dark curly haired baby.  Grandpa is very proud.

 

 

 

 

 

Ooops!  I posted one picture twice!  The young woman in that pic is my middle daughter Shawndra.  She is Sofies' mom.   Elizabeths' mom, my youngest daughter Erin, got left out in this batch.  Her turn will come.

    So that's where you've been!  You quite possibly have two of the cutest granddaughters on the planet.  That baby is precious!  And look at that hair!  Both my babies were baldies.

    Congratulations, Grandpa!  I'm jealous...

    Congratulations, Botoni!  The babies are both beautiful - some head of hair on that little one.  Lots of love and good health to all of you - A.

    Wow, botoni!  Babies!  And 6 pounds and 7 ounces of precious, too!  And I love that shot of you holding your older grand-bundle! You have your hands full now....and what a wonderful pair of hands full!

    What adorable granddaughters you have, botoni! :) (They get their good looks from Grandpa, you know! ;-)) Congratulations on the new addition - she's precious.

    Oh Botoni they are so cute. The little one has such a strong expression on his face and your daughter is a beautiful woman. You can be proud of all of them luv
  • botoni said on Oct 31, 2007....
    MISSMIMI......Come visit. You can borrow the wee ones anytime just as long as you promise to return them.
    TWYLA......Thank you. I kinda like them myself.
    EVIL_T.....I cant wait till they are old enough to go to Disneyland with Grandpa. We ll have as much fun as the two of you did.
    NURSEHOTSTUFF.....Thanks. When the two of you get to it I ll bet you ll have beautiful little ones too.
    ARTEMIS.......Thank you. All that hair goes curly when she s had a bath. We re all wondering if it ll last.
    TIO.........Thank you. You flatter me but it s true!....hehehe.
    SILVER....Grandchildren are a wonderful gift and they re so much more fun then their parents......jk
    ACTORGUY....Thank you. I ll have to post a pic of Elizabeths mother. She looks exactly like my sister in Guelph. That way if you see her on the street you ll know who she is.
    SKALD.....Thank you. Elizabeth has a very expressive face. This look is because she doesnt see this grandpa often and she s a bit unsure. She warmed up after awhile and spent lots of time teasing me and laughing. She has a great giggle.

    What a wonderful family you have Botoni, the baby is just plain beautiful as is your daughter.

    The little boy, he's cute as a bugs ear, must be the fresh air up that way haha. Thanks for sharing your family Grandpa........

    Grandadulations!! ooops I mean congratulations, Botbabes!!
     
    What gorgeous little grandbabies you have. . .you have reason to smile and be proud!
     
    Did you get to open the candy from the UK yet?  How is Erin doing after the birth?
     
    Love Polar
  • botoni said on Oct 31, 2007....
    FROZETICKER! The UK candy was our means of celebration. They are wonderful! Thank you so much! (I hogged the chocolate all to myself though). Erin is doing pretty well. Elizabeth arrived via C-section so Erin is a little bit tender but she ll be fine in a few days. Hows the 'eye cream' doing?
  • botoni said on Oct 31, 2007....
    MOBIL.....The 'little boy' is a girl. She does look like a little boy in these pics. Its particularly funny because when her mother was little people would tell us it was awful to dress a little boy in pink! And thank you, my daughter did turn out to be a beauty.

    They are so cute, it makes me teary.  I am so excited about my grandbaby that is on the way, hopefully he will be here real soon.  I asked if I could babysit while she works, she hasn't said yet.  My husband smokes and she doesn't want him around the smoke, which I understand and agree with.  So I told him he had to smoke outside. He agreed cause I gave him that look.
  • polarheart said on Jun 12, 2008....

    Your little babies are just too sweet, Botbabes.

    I send Gramps a (((hug)))

     

    love Polar

  • botoni said on Jun 12, 2008....

    mom.....We have the no smoking agreement around my grandchildren too. I'm the guilty smoker so it's outside with me or off with my head. Grandkids are way more fun than their parents is the lesson you're about to learn.

    Frozen Ticker....Thanks for the hugs and the compliment.

Watching an adorable 1 year-old baby is quiet amusing. She is trying to figure out where to place a lovely playhouse of her doll. One-year-olds are just starting their forays into friendships....
