And she seems quite content in her new surroundings. I hope she lives close enough for you to see her often!

48. MUST DO SKYPE!!!!

I Skype Mom (86) daily... it's like being there.

And I have a coworker who's grandbaby was in Japan... and they skyped on a regular basis. Grandma wasn't just a word. They would play peek-a-boo and make faces at each other... Grandbaby KNEW who Grandma was. Skype is a must!!!!!

Just my 2 cents.

She was 7 lbs, 15.9 ounces, so at 8 lbs, she is a nice size. She has some thighs on her! LOL
