I've been bursting to tell my blog friends that I'm going to be a GRANDMA!
My daughter and her husband are having a baby in September. We don't know yet what it's going to be but one things for sure....it will be a whole new FUN adventure for our family!
Since I can't name the baby (darn...but guess the parents get to do that) I can ask YOU what name the baby should call ME.........
I don't FEEL like a grandma....so I want other suggestions.
It doesn't matter how crazy our outrageous the name is...I'll consider all suggestions!
I just can't wait to meet our new grandchild!
I know this is late, but, one of my babies calls me Oma, and the other one, his sister, calls me nomon

Congratulations, Robin! We're expecting another grandbaby in August and share your gleeful anticipation. Our children called one grandmother Geegee (because her name also began with Ge..) and their Finnish grandmother Aiti. When my first son became a father, I became Nana because his wife's older sister's children (did you follow that?) already called her parents Grandma and Grandpa. Whatever you decide, you'll wear the title beautifully!

Congrats on becoming a grandparent - one of the very best jobs ever !!
When my only grandson, Joseph, was born; I was already Grandma to three darling little girls. So, I thought I would be Grandma to Joe too -- but, he had other plans in mind. It all started with a small photo album filled with pictures of family members that Joe-Joe and Mommy would go through each night as he said his 'God Bless' prayers. When Mommy would point to my picture, Joe-Joe would insist that was 'MoMo' -- and, I've been his MoMo every since. It's not a name I would have picked or come up with on my own - but, I love to hear him call me his MoMo!

Congrats; that is wonderful!
I've already thought about this, and neither of my boys are even married yet! I just think "Grandma" sounds so OLD.
I have considered "Mimi".... but isn't that a character on the Drew Carey show? LOL

My mom has been tossing around the names GiGi, and Mimi. I also know a Pipa, which i think is very cute!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!! Its the best adventure ever!!
I go by Grammy, but Sugarwings sometimes calls me Grams or even Grandmother, which is pretty cute when she says it. When she does, I call her Grand Daughter and she thinks that is cool.

Congratulations, Robin! This is very exciting! No ideas on what your title should be - I'm sure you'll answer to anything that little voice calls out.
