Well, DH and I took our trip to Dland Saturday morning. My son, who was soon to become a father,(supposedly April 4th) wanted us to stay home. Maybe he knew something. We checked into our room at Hojo's which was VERY nice and watched the fireworks from our room. We did not go into the parks that day. WE then got a call from son at 11pm saying that everything was OK and he was golfing the next morning and then painting the nursery. We fell asleep in the most wonderful bed ever. Absolutely the best mattress I have ever slept on... I was in a deep sleep when the phone rang at 4am..... It seems that Mommy's water broke and the grandson was on his way.... Needless to say, we packed up and hit the road by 5:30.... We are the proud grandparents of Andrew Paul.... 5lbs 13 oz.... 20" long. He was 3 weeks early but everything is OK.... This was the shortest trip ever to Disneyland...I must apologize to AZDLdad as we were going to meet him and family in the park..I had no way to get a hold of him...Once again, I am elusive.....but an elusive grandma!!!!! We will go again June 1st. And back to Hojo's.... I want the same room again, as I didnt get a chance to really enjoy it. #1711..... Now I start another countdown but in the meantime I get to spoil the child! Life is good, very very good!!!!!

Sorry you missed Disneyland but a grandchild is well worth the forfeit. You will have lots of time to bring little Andrew to Disneyland with you in the future I hope.
Again, congratulations! ! ! !
