Three Generations

We had two very excited grandma's when we announced that we were having a baby. She would be grand-baby #1 for both sides, so would be incredibly spoiled all the way around. She is an incredibly lucky little girl--she is so, so loved it is unbelievable.

Claire was born on October 18 and my mom arrived on October 23 and here is a picture of their first time meeting.

My mom was an amazing help--she would take Claire in the morning so we could sleep, did dishes, cooked, cleaned...all the things you don't want to do right after having a baby! I certainly hope the same things happen with the next baby...it was such a blessing to have her around!

Our next visitor after my mom left was Bud's mom, Claire's Grammy. We didn't get a picture of the first night...but the next day was Grammy's birthday, so we got a picture then...

Again, Marie was more than we could have asked for. She took Claire after her morning feeding so we could sleep in, made us meals, did the dishes....so incredibly helpful. She even put in a couple loads of laundry! We loved having her there, and enjoyed seeing her interact with her first grandchild--she was a natural!

Claire is so incredibly lucky to have two grandmothers who think the world of her. They have been beyond helpful to our family,and we are so excited to the journey that they will lead as grandma's...they will be amazing! We talked many times while I was pregnant about what kind of parents we would be, and Bud mentioned one time that we both had amazing parents, so how could we really go wrong? I couldn't agree more.

Happy Mother's Day to my mom and my mother in law...you are both amazing women, mothers and grandmothers! We love you!
