I am so excited to announce that I have a grandson! A sweet baby boy was born last night at 8:50...weighing 7 lb 13 oz and measuring 20 1/2 inches.
Our daughter-in-law had a beautiful natural birth -- about 12 hours in the hospital. She was incredible. He's precious and wonderful and I am just overwhelmed with gratitude and amazement and joy. I am so proud of my son for being an excellent coach. Corie was there with us, too, and she should definitely be a labor assistant; she's terrific.
I was thinking, driving home from the hospital around 1:30 in the morning this morning, how everyone pitched in and contributed -- Susannah, Lily and Tessa just patiently hung out in the waiting room ALL DAY. Danny got out of school and came to be there with them. Every time I'd come out to check on them, he'd be holding Tessa. Uncle Garrison put Lily in bed last night, after Corie's friend Carrie had come to pick her up and take her home.
Pop was the only one not participating; he left yesterday morning for an ROTC retreat.
I will be posting pictures soon, so check back!
