Congratulations...........I mean, its nice that they are both Jennifer an all and their birthdays are on the same day......it makes it real easy to remember as you go into your Alzheimer stage.........but that is gonna be some pretty interesting to see how close they are going to be in giving birth.......like, did your boys do this as a Team??????

sorry to hear about Ponies leg.......same spot?? Did you ever figure out what happened the last time

and my grandmothers were Granny Black, and Granny Grory........but Michaela called me Bramma Joan.....couldnt quite get the G thing going.....and I've been Bramma ever since.

They are about 2.5 months apart. It gives me a little time to recover between them,LOL!! Not sure what I will be called. My Mom is Nana so we are debating. Both want boys and I want a granddaughter. Yup, she injured the same leg only on the inside now. We searched the pasture again and found nothing really. This time it is swollen more and has more heat. She is very good about being treated though.

First off, sorry to hear about Ponie's leg :( I hope you get it fixed up in no time!

Congratulations!!! Two babies a couple of months apart should be fun! I called both my grandmothers "Nana". I always thought it sounded funny and wished that my parents had brought me up with a grandma. Hahaha, you've got lots of time to sound out different names. Take them for a test run! Do your kids have any pets? :D

Congrats! Two babies at once is going to be so much fun.

I called my grandmothers Nanny or Nan. My step grandmother is Grammy.

I called my dad's mom Grammie and my Mom's mom Grandma. Not exactly sure why that is lol!

Are these your first Grandkids? How exciting!

Ponie sounds like she needs some bubble wrap lol!

No chance she's getting kicked by a pasture mate is there?

Thinking about just Nan maybe. I know the bubble wrap is coming out. Hopefully this will be the last of it. She has been moved to a new pasture and we will see. The cut is on the inside so it looks like she has run into something. I have 2 step grandchildren who call me Jayne and that is fine. I treat them like my own and spolied them just the same.

Poor Ponie. Sounds like she keeps finding something to get into.

Congrats on the upcoming grandkids. I called my grandmothers "grammie". Around here it's "nan" - then you can tell who is "from away", and who is from here.

Joan, isn't Bramma some sort of bull?
