Hello everyone,

She's here! Our newest granddaughter was born on Sunday night. She weighed 8 lbs. 6 oz. and is 20 1/2". We spent almost all day at the hospital with Bean and Bug waiting for her to arrive! It was very late and the girls were tired so they didn't get to hold her until the next morning. I took about 150 pictures during the two days I was with everyone. It will take a few more posts to get them all up. Here are some just from the hospital:



Bean and Bug with Mommy and baby sister shortly after she was born.

This was the next day and Bean couldn't look happier!

Bug got her turn to hold her new baby sister.

Mommy helping her hold the baby just right!

Here she is!

Later the cousins, Deuce, Fess and Lili came for a visit!
The tired but happy family!


I'll try to post more every couple of days. It was a real blessing to be able to be with the girls while they waited for their sister to arrive! We also got to spend time with J.A.'s parents from Minnesota. They are always fun to spend time with. We watched golf and did a crossword puzzle while waiting!

We are so blessed to have 7 healthy, happy grandchildren! We plan on having another big family picture taken next month so you will be able to see everyone together!

Have a very blessed rest of the week!

Shalom,

Robin
