Hello Friends!
I have been a busy little bee the last several days. You see we are going to have a new little bundle of joy in our arms very soon!
My oldest daughter, Macielle, & her husband, Ryan, are expecting their first little baby...a girl! 🎀
Yippee!
And I get to throw my little pumpkin a baby shower covered in pink and lots of 🌸 flowers!
I am hosting it here at Gasthaus on the Meadow and I can’t wait!!!
🍼
Little Miss Layla Brooke is due to make her arrival early September!
🎀
I can’t wait to share all the pictures & prep work with you.
But I am waiting for the big reveal as I don’t want to spoil the surprise for Macielle or her guests!
🍼
Sunday is the big day! It will be a glorious Victorian Style Shower filled with flowers, pumpkins & a splash of bunnies! 🐰
I am planning a detail blog post so I can document the entire party process!
🍼
I have been pondering & in long debate with myself what I want to be called.
The traditional names of Grandmother or Grandma just won’t do...So what am I to use?
🌸
Since our heritage is German my parents, my children call them Oma & Opa. We are going to call my husband Opa or Opa-pa in honor of my Dad who passed away 3.5 years ago. My mom is still with us so we wanted her to keep that name exclusively.
I have been on the struggle bus with this choice for over 7 months! Anyone else been in this dilemma?
Goodness gracious have I spent time googling my options! 🤓
🎀
Well, finally...
it has been decided...
Certainly not a traditional name
Not a family name
Not even a traditional foreign language name
We went with something unique
We went with something fun and whimsical
The name my grand cherubs will know me by is:
Glamma Bunny
(Bunny for short)
🐰
It fits!
I can’t wait to hear the shout my name little feet run in my door!
Confession: I couldn’t help myself & I have splashed a few bunnies around her nursery and at the shower too!
🌸🍼🌸
So I am curious:
What are some of the names you use in your family for Grandmother?
Please let me know I know I am not the only non-traditional Glamma Bunny out there!
