I'm going to see La Nieta this weekend. I'm spending a quick overnight visit in Canberra so I can see the little dickens, and then it's back home. I will provide photographic evidence.
I should point out that my Mother, upon finding out that her newest Great Grandaughter was a girl (and yes, I realise that is slightly redundant) immediately went out to buy clothing in shades of pink. In fact, a few weeks before the wee one was born, my mother said "Tell her I WANT TO BUY DRESSES!!"
My poor, long suffering Mother had one girl (me - and you know how I turned out), three boys, one Grandaughter and then FIVE GRANDSONS IN A ROW. Not that she's bitter, but she loves nothing more than buying stuff with frills on it. And I am not exactly frilly.
As you know.
Anyway, should be fun. I shall update in due course.

Las Abuelas
We became Grandmothers tonight.
The Kiwi's daughter had a girl. I started to write baby girl but to have a full grown one would require our own National Geographic Special. Actually, when "I" had her she was already 12 so I kinda did, in my own, inimitable way.
Details? We ain't got none at the moment other than "Mother and daughter are well". The Kiwi (as we speak) is probably arriving at the hospital to find out all of the details. She flew to Canberra to see the new 'un. We're going over again in November - this trip was a last minute thing since the whole pregnancy went over by nine days. I only hope they don't complain she was over cooked at Judge's Table.
In some ways, I think text messages are the telegrams of the New Millenium.
