My oldest grandchild is now 18 and I was 45 when he was born and still a young looking not obese gramma! I was so excited and really loved looking after him 1 day a week...2 years later my first granddaughter arrived and I was just as thrilled maybe MORE because I had hoped the first one was a girl.....had even been a tad disappointed it was a boy, (just for a couple seconds!). Then my other daughter had a girl and a boy 8 years later so I had another set and although I love them dearly, was never quite as excited....but they are all great. Now I look like an overweight gramma so maybe when I get slim again, I will have more energy and enthusiasm. I am 63 and will have open Roux-N-Y on March 16th....getting excited!

I never had any problems with the happiness of a new grand child taking me by storm. But with the 2nd, we knew for 4 months that it was a girl and that stole a little of the thunder and fun. kinda like when you open your Christmas gift and know what it is before Christmas. We love her as much as we do the others, the delivery wasn't as much fun...but she was still our first granddaughter...as a matter of fact, she is the only one. The oldest was her brother and the first so that was very exciting. She was the first girl so I had 4 months of baby girl clothes shopping. Then with our youngest, we were in the room when he was born and that was so exciting! You will find something special about each and every grandchild that you have. We were even excited when my son-in-law made us instant grandparents when he and his son married into our family...umm I guess I should say he and my grandson because the child was only 18 months when they met and I loved him long before he became ours
