#3 :o)

I think everyone who reads my blog knows this already -- but I will add it here just to document the day.

We have a new granddaughter! We've been waiting for about a week, wondering each day if this will be "the day" or not. Just when we were ready to wait for the weekend, Thea Annelise was born this morning.* I would call her a "little firecracker" but little doesn't quite fit, as she weighed in at 10# 7 oz., beating even Uncle Ben's birthweight. Mom, baby, Dad, and sister Danelle are all doing fine.
