Grandma has a new name!!

So Ben's mom has picked a new grandma name. Personally, I think it's darling. She will now be known as Ya-yai. It's a combination of the Thai words for grandmother. Ya is the name for the paternal grandmother and Yai the name for the maternal grandmother. So, technically, the girls will be saying "grandma-grandma" and mixing up the paternal/maternal thing, but whatever. Ya-yai sounds better than just Ya. For those a little slow on the draw, Ben's mom is from Thailand - thus the Thai name:-) I think it's a very cute name. It's simple to say too, and it may just be the first grandma/grandpa name the girls are able to pronounce.
