Our New Grandson

We were working out at the Y on Wednesday morning, when our younger daughter arrived unexpectedly to inform us that our older daughter had delivered a bouncing baby boy that morning! Needless to say, our workout ended at that moment, and we all piled in the car to make the drive to meet this young man.

As you can see, he has very long fingers, and has matching long feet and toes. He weighed in at 7 pounds 14 ounces.
Grandpa was delighted to see that he fits on his lap, at least for the time being.

Here is Dad, a bit tired, but very happy to have a new fishing buddy. The shirt came from Australia.

Grandma was thrilled to hold this newest member of the family, a boy to play with the girls down east!

Here is the Aunt, who must be the only person whose job provides her with "Aunt"ernity leave. She took the day off work to meet her new nephew. Of course, he had been requested specifically by her (to be a boy that is) so I guess she felt entitled to take time from work.

And here he is....tired from his journey but absolutely perfect!

His Mom was very happy that he had arrived as well. She, too, was tired, but excited!

We welcome this young man to our family. We can hardly wait until he wakes up and joins the fun!
