Title: Our grandson is 10 days early
Post by: manicscousers on January 27, 2011, 18:44:52: Our daughter in law went into labour early hours and our baby grandson was born, he's under observation, we are assured there are no problems, he has a little tube up his very small nose but was 7lbs 3ozs so a good weight. No name yet, that's the next job, happy happy birthday, little one ;D

Know the problem - our children have 'bilingual' names mainly to keep both sets of grandparents happy. But luckily the choice was big enough. No wonder naming the little man takes some time :)

Hope all is going well.

I had no choice at all about the names of my first two children. It was the Sicilian custom to name the first boy after the husband's father and the first girl after his mother. Luckily for me and them, the names are nice - Angelina and Antonio. I chose the name for our second son, another Italian name - Alessandro.

I know, it was a bit of a problem. :) But they all have middle names beginning with a different letter to each other.

He looks so adorable.

My second son was born with black hair and then lost it all. The new hair he grew was blonde though and 33 years down the line his hair is still fair.
