Our beautiful, precious granddaughter has arrived so I will probably no longer call her "Honey Bun". Her name is Sophia Lynne and, if I decide to give her a nickname, it might possibly be "Little Pumpkin" or "Punkin" since she was born on Halloween Day. What fun it will be at birthday parties for her since the "theme" has already been set!
We were awakened at 5:25 am SA w/Val telling us they were at the hospital. At 8 a.m. we met the Williams and Selvaggio's for breakfast at Gilmore's then moved all the stuff we thought we'd need from Petersburg to our "winter resort" in Spfld. They all left by 11:30 so I went to Meijer's (ha, Kimmie!) and just as I pulled into a pkg spot, Scott called. While he and I both kept crying tears of joy, I eventually got the scoop from him on how Valerie was doing, the weight and measurements of their sweet baby and then asked her name. I think SOPHIA LYNNE has a very nice sound to it.
Grandpa and I plan to get to TX on Nov. 15th, unless the kids decide they need us before then. I can't wait to spend a week down there to hug her, kiss her, cradle her..... Need I say more? I am one happy and EXCITED grandma! Oh yeah, Grandpa is a happy camper as well. He's been smiling ever since he got the call, especially since he got the scoop before I did!
