There are some things, that, as a new mom, you want to be the first to do/experience with your child.
Their first steps, first laugh, first word - pretty much their first everything.
My grandparent's 60th anniversary party was today, and as stated in a previous post, we couldn't go. I asked one of my sisters to take her iPad so we could FaceTime and at least she would see my grandparents for the very first time.
Flashback to Thursday night when I picked Anna up from my mother's house, and she told me she had FaceTimed my sister, who was with my grandparents. And showed them Anna.
And also showed her to my two aunts, uncles, and several cousins who also hadn't met her.
I cried a little bit on the way home.
We FaceTimed them again today, but it just wasn't the same. And my grandparents can barely operate a portable phone, much less figure out how to FaceTime using an iPad.
My husband did try to console me with the fact that my mother-in-law gave our nephew his first haircut. Without permission.
This is really making me sadder than it should.
Time for a margarita. :)
