Welcoming new grandson

Here he is one week old.  Welcome HR we love you.

Waiting, waiting and waiting for that baby to come.  I went up to help Mel on Jan 7.  She was feeling pretty miserable.  I did go home to see Q and N and P man off to Dubai.  Other wise it has been a very cold January made longer by the waiting for the baby to be born.  But all the children were very good and did not make a lot of trouble.  They kept themselves busy .

Mel is so anxious for the baby to come that she had to show him off, still in his wrapping.

DD is making room for the new baby by learning to dress himself.

Here they are in front of the tv.

These munskins would come down and snuggle every morning.  I wasn't fooled though.  the tv was next to my bed and they always wanted to talk me into watching kids show while I cooked breakfast.

 

This picture of HR looks just like his mother when she was a newborn.

Me and grandchild # 13.  Isn't he cute.

Little C had his 7th birthday the day after HR's birth.  From now on this will be known as the birthday week.

Em and Bear love their new doll and are finding out he can do all sorts of things.

One week old and growing
