Following up the last post about the 2nd granddaughter: She still is being a Drama Queen. She walks around the house, clutching her lower belly and whimpering/groaning quietly whenever someone notices her. Her oldest sister--15 years old--just rolls her eyes. What a kid. ;)
This whole thing brings to mind another story. My oldest sister-in-law went into labor with her oldest. Because it wasn't time to go to the hospital, she went and sat at my in-law's house, to spend time with her mother--hopefully, to get a little sympathy. In typical fashion, my mother-in-law was very laid back about the entire thing and continued with what was on her agenda, which included setting her hair. My s-i-l sat at the kitchen table, groaning and moaning whenever she had a contraction, and said, "But you don't KNOW how much this hurts!!!!" My m-i-l just continued setting her hair and said nothing: SHE had given birth to five kids--the last of which were twins. :D
