<--------I got to hold a brand new one of these 2 night!
Yep, my brand new baby grandson came into the world at 7:20 this morning!
His name is Dayton Arthur! He weighed 7 pounds 13 ounce and is 18 inches.
TONS of black hair! He looks like his beautiful momma! I even remembered to
take pictures!
Yesterday Mark told Jeremy to go to the Walgreens and get some Castor Oil, told him to hand it to his wife and have her drink it, surely THAT would put her into labor. 6 hours later at 2 am she went into labor. Whoa the old tried and true method!
Of course where was grandma Rose??? At work of course! Humph! I got the desperate call at 5:45 am from my base, so as I was leaving to cover an all day out of district route, Mark got the call to stay home, because of the huge lightening storms.
After my drop at the school, I called him and he gave me the long awaited news!
I also found out that we don't start any training until the middle of next month, so I can help Tracey and enjoy a month more of summertime bliss!
Ok Jackie! Where's your good news!!????

Rose,
I am SO happy for everyone! We each now have 3 grandchildren to bless our homes during the Holidays and throughout the year! I have been off line since Monday when the storms blew out my cable/internet and power (3 days for power outage). I came back on-line just in time to hear your great news.
Have fun helping Tracey. Please send your pictures when you get a chance!
Love,
Kathy G.
Congrats Grandma. I'm so glad he's finally here.
Hugs, R.C.

I could knock myself in the head for leaving the last comment on the previous entry! I remember now you told me your Tracy had the baby when you commented on MY journal! Duh! I think I have post partum grandma forgetfulness! lol
Our grandbabies are just hours apart... Your baby boy sounds like he was a nice hefty little one. Garrett is long and lanky (already) just like his daddy and mommy. Both of them are on the lean side.
I am so happy for you Rose! :) I'm glad that your little one was born strong and healthy, and that your Tracey is doing well too! :)
Hugs and love,
Jackie
Congrats Rose!!Can't wait to see some photos!
Have a great weekend! Martha :-)
Oh how exciting Rose!!! Enjoy your new baby!!!
