First time parents are the best. My daughter and son-in-law are the best parents. They read everything.. No children were to touch the baby. Grandparents only were allowed the privilege but had to pass interrogation as to handwashing and clothing. Health checks were a must on a regular basis. My daughter had me so paranoid because God forbid I should be the first to give this baby a cold.
The baby is now 10 months old. She's getting around and getting into to everything. You know the drill. Yesterday, my daughter called to tell me the baby gagged. Daddy stuck his sanitized fingers in ther mouth to get out whatever it was that caused his precious little girl to gag. At first he pulled a crumpled wad. He said that it was grass. However, on closer inspection., the grass had legs. Yes folks. it was a spider!

I hope your daughter and son inlaw relax a little and let your granddaughter be a kid...she's going to get bumps and bruises now that's shes moving around...
I remember when my Aunt was urgently brushing a little dirt off her 2 year-old daughter's hands. Meanwhile, right behind her back, her 4 year-old son had found a cigarette butt and was pretending to smoke it!
By the way, they both survived!
Blessings
One time when my son was a little over a year old, we were sitting outside at my mother-in-laws. A ladybug landed on the patio table. My mother-in-law allows it to crawl in her finger and she then puts it on my sons arm.
My son proceeds to pick it up between his fingers and promptly stick it in his mouth rofl. We both scrambled but by time we got his mouth opened he had already swallowed.
As my mother always jokes, "Nothing wrong with a little extra protein!" ROFL
I would have died pulling a spider out, I HATE spiders. I am still cringing.
but how funny.. i bet them freaking was more funny than the baby eating the spider.
I can't wait to see what they do with baby #2. I'll bet they'll be letting complete strangers hold their newborn so they can rummage through their bag and get out the car keys...
