...Oh, just lovely. How nice to be, finally, named.<br /><br />I liked learning about the woobie, too.

But I made her a woobie! Not that I knew I had, because it was called a taggy when I made it, but that would be because they are on the other side of that big pond thingy where they use different names. I believe it's because babies tend to like the silky feel of the tags in garments, so a blankie surrounded by silky ribbon loops became a taggy. I shall make a woobie for the next one :) Anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09769570242982345152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23379328.post-87062583083528037652013-04-02T21:34:39.329+01:002013-04-02T21:34:39.329+01:00How wonderful!

I've been thinking I'd like to get on with being a grandma, but you've made me realize it would be best to wait until we're retired. Not that we'll have any say in the timing! Anyway, your retirement timing has worked out perfectly!Thimbleannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03650582809426872051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23379328.post-8792332970531493632013-04-02T03:43:13.530+01:002013-04-02T03:43:13.530+01:00Anny sounds good.

Plain old Grandma is what I chose to be called, although as the other Melbourne grandmother decided likewise, I had my given name appended. Quite a mouthful for the littlies.<br />The baby looks so lovely.<br />Apropos of afghans etc, over here a bunny rug was a light, generally synthetic or cotton small blanket for baby to be wrapped in. The rugs/blankets of crocheted squares are known here as Granny rugs. <br />persiflagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05161607100227748374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23379328.post-54705455481261284622013-04-02T02:59:52.926+01:002013-04-02T02:59:52.926+01:00I love the name Anny!
