My Exciting News..............

Hello my lovelies, how are you all today? I'm not going to moan about the weather cus a dear blogging friend woke to 2 inches of snow yesterday.........so we shouldn't moan about it being miserable. Snow in spring, who would have thought.

Anyway I've come on to share my fabulous, or should I say our, my family's fabulous news. Ok when Megan & Ben told us they were expecting another baby I had a dream about it that night, the following day I started crocheting a blanket but in a certain colour cus thats what I had dreamt the sex of the child would be. I got half way though & Megan started having problems so Ileft it alone incase I was jinxing it lol. First I'm gonna show what I brought for my grandchild, they arrived yesterday.....
I ordered some little Converse socks, are these just the cutest or what. 

 Excuse pic below it was taken on my bed lol.
Ok so here's the blanket I started crocheting, yes I know in blue, its cus my dream told me he was a boy. Megan went for her 20 week scan on Monday & guess what....ITS A BOY!!! Woooo hoooo we are so excited.

He is going to be named after Bens grandad John (my dad) & his uncle Robert (my brother) who both have passed away. They were going to call him Robert John & RJ for short, I suggested why not try make a name with RJ.............so his name will be 'ARJAY'......I sooooooooo love it, its unusual which I love & he will be named after 2 of the greatest men in our family............I'm soooooooo proud.
'Insert granny happy dance right here' 
So I can finish my blanket for him now ;0) 

Ok will be back later with my SC DT card but for toodles my lovelies mmwah

Oh sweetie you must be over the moon and how lucky are you all having one of each. It is usually all girls wanting just one boy or all boys and wanting just one girl. You family have got it all sewn up already.

Oh Vicky that is super news. We have an 8 month old grandson who we ADORE from our eldest son and now our eldest daughter is pregnant, she is due in November so don't know what that one will be but I am guessing at a girl. I'll have a little wait to see if I can get it as right as you lol.
