She has arrived!!

Here's the new Mom and Dad...megan's not frowning she is crying 
because she is so thrilled to finally be able to hold her baby, cause
she had some difficulties right after the delivery, so she had to
wait a while, which was like torture for her I am sure.

Evening Sweet Friends,

(Started this last night, but was just too tired to finish.)

Hope you are all doing well......

I have wonderful news.............

and that is our lil darling has finally arrived.

She came Monday Morning, March 4, 2013

 at 6:09 a.m.

She weighed 7pd. and 5 oz.

and was 20" long

and her name is Brooklyn Jade

and she is a precious lil beauty and

bundle of joy for sure!

Here she is just moments after her birth.
All I can think is about that song by Stevie
Wonder........Isn't she lovely, isn't she
wonderful................so true every word.

It was a long and arduous experience for all 

of us, but especially for Megan, Scott and her

 Mom.  They went to the hospital on Saturday 

at 2 p.m., and they decided to induce labor

 due to her having high blood pressure.

There were some very scary moments,

and it seemed like if it could go wrong it

 did.....and a long wait... but Mom and Baby

 got through it all, and are doing as well as 

can be expected, for all they have been

through.  Megan and Scott are both just so 
exhausted, as they have hardly had any 
sleep at all since Saturday.

We feel so badly for them, but hoping

once they get home and they don't have

someone coming in every hour or so to

check on her and the baby maybe they 

can get some much needed sleep. 

Course, we are very grateful and thankful

 the hospital staff are watching over them 

so well too.  

Megans mom and I got to be in the delivery 

room and I just made it in time.  I got to the

 hospital at 6:01 and she was born at 6:09. 

 Jimmy dropped me off in front of the hospital

and I ran as much as I could to the 2nd floor...

What an amazing experience!  Wasn't too

sure about it at first, but am so very glad she

 asked me.  What a sweet experience to see

your first grandchild come into the world.

Am so thankful we were able to stay at Dee

and Jerry's as they are closer to the hospital,

cause I would not have made it in time, other-
wise.  Megans mom, God Bless her, stayed up
 there and helped them the whole time.

  Megan is such a trooper and did an amazing

 job of weathering all the storms, bless her

 heart, and she went thru quite a lot, and 

Scott did a great job of guarding her and 

trying to comfort her as best he could. We

are so proud of them, and so excited about
this adorable lil cherub and our new role
as her grandparents and last but definitely
not least, we are thankful for God's watch 
care and keeping over them, as we saw
 him answer a number of prayers through 
out this blessed event.

Daddy showing his girl.....her first sunrise!

Yours truly.......with our new sweetie.............
if we all look a bit ragged out,  it is because we were. lol
all these were taken just moments after she was born.
Can you tell I had been crying as well!!  lol

She was so alert and looking all around and sort of smiling at times

Here she is with her new Grampy

These were all taken about 3 hours later when
they moved them to their room. Mom was feeling 
much better after some food in her tummy

 Daddy admiring his lil precious one.

Sleeping sweetly and peacefully in Mommy's
loving and long awaited arms.

Quickly getting into my Grammy role. 

I heard this quote once but have no idea

where or who wrote it, but it says:

A baby is God's opinion that life 

should go on............

Just found it online and it was written

by Carl Sanburg, and I couldn't agree

with him more, cause there is no

sweetness like that of a baby.......

Well, thanks for coming by today....

and thanks for sharing in all of our excitement

and blessings with us.  It was truly a day

we will probably never forget.....

Have a lovely day,

Love, Hugs,  and

Sweet Baby Blessings,

Nellie
