I have had the most amazing day having all my family around me and everyone behaved themselves. It was my birthday earlier on in the month but I had a really bad cold so had to stop family from visiting especially my oldest daughter who is pregnant, only 9 weeks to go. She's been excited about me seeing the presents she bought be.
We managed to arrange for today when I would be able to see both my girls and there partners, I did have a few orders before hand, they wanted Mince and Dunmplings for dinner with homemade Rice Pudding for later. Me and hubby got started on it together. We all managed to sit down together and enjoy the food whilst having a good chat. I promised I would open my presents after lunch.
I got some lovely presents but my favourite one was this Teddy bear. A month ago I paid for my daughter to have a 4d scan of her baby for keepsakes. Whilst she was there she got the heartbeat taped and placed it in the bunny. All I have to do is squeeze the bunny's tummy then van hear baby bean's heartbeat. It's amazing and such a lovely thought. I've been sitting cuddling it all afternoon, she knows how excited I am to be a nana, this id my first granddaughter and she arrives in 9 weeks
I got lots of lovely presents that I cherish but thought I needed to tell someone about my bunny and what better place to tell than on Hive where all my friends are. Listening to the heartbeat is making me more excited, I really can't wait to meet her. My next birthday I will have bean here to cuddle. My daughter and her partner have a name for her but won't tell us until she is here, we have all had our quess on what her name will be, all of us think it's going to be Alice as Jessica is obsessed with Disney especially with Alice in Wonderland.
I have had a great day, its been non stop and hectic but loved every minute. Its definitely made up for missing my birthday. I'm lying in bed with my new bunny very happy. The heartbeat is lovely too listen to it won't be long before she is here giving her nana a cuddle for real.
Jess went away with a large bag of clothes for bean plus a night light and lots of pram toys and teething toys. She loved the clothes I had bought. She said she thinks she has enough clothes now up until 9 months wuth enough to have to change her twice a day. I can now start buying 9 - 12 months clothes. Her wardrobe is very impressive, she has clothes for every occasion.
Today has worn me out, I'm going to sleep with a smile on my face.
Thank you for visiting. ππ
Dear @karenb54, we need your help!
The Hivebuzz proposal already got important support from the community. However, it lost its funding a few days ago and only needs a few more HP to get funded again.
May we ask you to support it so our team can continue its work this year?
You can do it on Peakd, ecency,

Your support would be really helpful and you could make a difference.
Thank you!
Aww..that is very thoughtful indeed. I wish they would have had that technology in years past, as I surely would love to have had a cuddle prior to the birth.
It sounds like you've had a lovely day with your family and let's face it.....who wouldn't like to have TWO birthdays....but we'll only count the one LOL
It was a lovely idea, I have to be careful with it as Luna thinks it's a toy for her, she will rip it apart.
Hope you and yours are well π
Oh yeah, I hadn't thought about the puppers wanting to give it a go. Best to keep it secured lol. We are all fine here, though the weather is quite hot already. I often think of you when I head out into my garden and I always enjoy seeing your sunflowers. Am I recollecting properly that you are not gardening this year? (sometimes my memory escapes me lol)
I am not gardening this year as have to much to do in the house. I have a spare room that we are decorating for my granddaughter for when she comes to stay, when she's older of course. We have lots to do plus getting Nicholas room finished.
I may sneak out into the garden abs plant a couple just for ne as I do love seeing my Sunflowers grow. π»
There is always so much to do and I must confess some of those things sit on a back burner when the garden is coming to life. I look forward to seeing your sunflowers if you do put them in. If not, I will see them next year. I want to grow some as I never have before. You make it look easy lol
