Babies, Babies, and More Babies!

I have 14 grandchildren.  The oldest is 11, the youngest,  4 months. The grand babies usually come in threes or fours.  At the beginning of school, I'll have 1 in 6th grade, 3 in 3rd grade, 4 in 1st grade and 5 in various preschool stages. 
Now this is where the exciting part comes in! 

My daughter, Camille, had a baby girl in April.

(This was taken the night before she delivered)

What a joy this baby has been!  


Olivia Brook is well loved. 


She's now laughing, rolling over,


 gooing, and waiting patiently for her cousins to arrive!


Here are her cousins.  All in various stages of development but coming real soon! 

Chelsey's having a girl on August 20th.  This is her first. 
Nicole's due date is August 29th.  This is her first and it's a girl.
Candice is due September 21st.  She's having a boy.  This is her 6th. 

We will be overflowing with babies and love and lack of sleep!

But wait, that's not all!  


This little girl is Jeanette, my youngest daughter. She is due in February with her first!

And we thought the birth of the royal baby was exciting!  psh!

So, in case you're wondering where I'll be for the next month or so...I'll be in Grandma Heaven!

    You are one lucky (blessed) grandma! You all will definitely be knee deep in babies! We have 2 baby boys on the way. Due Jan 19th and Jan 20th. Not too sure how I'll be in 2 places at once but we'll cross that bridge when we come to it! Mimi

    Hi Connie, I was just relooking into my blog and I came across a comment you made to me a couple of years ago at Halloween. I was just having my throat surgery. You said that you had one too. Ya know, I look at all your beautiful daughters and their expected babies - I can't help but that they are the most precious things ever. And to think of having all those babies at the same time - wow! I got a new computer and I don't know how to download again. (That's always my story). I haven't posted a blog for over a year.

    Have so much fun with all those darling daughters and special grandchildren.

    hugs, cindy@stitches cindygeilmann@hotmail.com

    Now that I'm "in the club" I understand the joy of this post! I'll never have a ton of grandkids, but that's ok! I plan on spoiling every one that I'm lucky enough to have!
