Candace Cameron Bure just became a grandma a few months ago, and now she’s officially a grandmother of two. Clearly, being a grandma is very new for her, but she previously revealed that she’s been dreaming about this milestone for some time now. Based on a recent update she shared, it seems like this phase of life is everything she hoped for and more.
She’s chosen a different nickname for herself, though.
She’s not “grandma” to her grandkids. Instead, she’s calling herself “CandyGram.” Candace, 50, has used this nickname in several posts about becoming a grandmother. When posting about her daughter Natasha’s pregnancy back in May, she wrote, “I’m gonna be a Candy Gram!!!!!!” Then, when promoting the onesies available in her shop in October, she wrote, “How I feel about being a CandyGram on a onesie… OH MY LANTA!” She added, “Can’t wait to dress my grandbabies in this.”
Before becoming a grandmother, Candace told Today.com that she “dreamed and prayed about being a grandma, and now it’s actually happening.” She also called it “the sweetest season.”
She posted about the birth of both grandchildren.
Then proceeded to refrain from sharing other photos of them. It’s not because she doesn’t want to share photos, though. She’s just trying to protect their privacy, she revealed in a recent post.
“I want nothing more than to post pictures of two of the cutest babies you’ll ever see, my grandchildren,” she wrote via her Instagram Stories on November 7. “I scroll through pictures of them all day long and just smile at their little faces.”
“My daughter and daughter-in-law send me daily pics when I can’t see them that day in person,” she added. “It’s the BEST!!” She also noted that she stopped herself from posting all of the photos for “privacy” reasons.
Candace’s son Lev and his wife welcomed their first child in August.
Their son, Bond Leo, was born 10 weeks early and spent some time in the NICU. Lev and his wife, Elliott, announced his birth at the end of September. Candace also to to Instagram to announce his birth at around the same time.
“Baby Bond was born 10 weeks early weighing 3 lbs,” she wrote. “For the next 6 weeks NICU doctors, nurses and mom and dad were amazing in their care and love for him. He’s thriving and is finally home.”
She then went on to talk about the joys of becoming a grandmother. “I had no idea the love I would have for my grandchild,” she wrote at the time. “It’s a love like no other, beyond anything I imagined. My heart is so full.”
Then, in October, her daughter Natasha welcomed her first child. On October 7, Candace shared several photos of Natasha, her husband, and their daughter, Winnie. In her post, she referred to herself as CandyGram rather than grandma.
“Dreams really do come true,” she captioned the post. “We love you so much Winnie sweet pea. You are so loved. CandyGram and Deda are here for every moment. (Natasha) and (her husband, Bradley) need no luck.”
So, there you have it: Candace loves being a… CandyGram.
