37. AWWWWW!!! Hi, Aven!!!

[lillypaddle]

39. Odin, she's already changed so much

in just 2 days!

[lillypaddle]

41. Opps, hit the "post" before I was ready

meant to say "hi" back from Ally

[pacalo]

38. Awww, so squeezably cute!

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

[lillypaddle]

40. She's 6 hours away

But think goodness for technology, at least there are videos & lots of pics.

[rurallib]

44. congratulations and learn the wonders of Skype as quick as you can

it is free to use and wonderful for that long away loved one.

[lillypaddle]

45. We've been talking about Skype

Thanks, rurallib!

[blaze]

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.

[lillypaddle]

49. Thanks for the rec!

sounds like that's the way to go.

[rurallib]

53. heh -heh -I have a 32" TV for a monitor

it is like life size!

[Amaril]

42. Hi Ally!

Welcome to DU...........oh, and to the world!

Edit: Saw where you corrected Odin that her name is "Ally" not "Aven"

[lillypaddle]

43. Hi from Ally, Amaril!

thanks for the warm DU welcome!
