Thankyou ALL for your lovely messages.

Yes Persey they all live near. The oldest Grandson lives 2 doors away while the youngest Grandson lives opposite me. My Granddaughter only lives 5 minutes away by car.

How wonderful Alyson, enjoy this first Christmas, and as for the wee one, introduce her to chocolate asap LOL.
My son was tiny too at his premature birth, he just turned 36 y/o and seems his feet are longer than his entire body was at birth! I am often amazed at how much I love my grandchildren, I'd never expected I could feel so strongly about children other than my own babes.
Blessings to the whole family,Mary

What good news Alyson and what a wonderful Christmas you all will have. Do your family live in close proximity of each other?

They have ready made playmates with all being near the same age.

All the best to you and your family.

Hi Alyson,

Congratualtions on your lovely grandchildren. My first born, a son, was born prematurely. He weighed 1750g, I was almost too scared to hold him. I look back on photo's of him so tiny and marvel. He will be 27 next month !!

Take lots of photo's and enjoy those lovely babies.

Thankyou Elizabeth.
We never thought we were going to become Grandparents but now we have 3 in one year. We have a Grandson who is six months old. another Grandson who is 7 weeks old and our Granddaughter 3 weeks old.

An expensive Xmas this year but well worth it.
