New Great Grandson!!

I am so excited!!  My newest (second) great grandchild - a boy- arrived this morning about 8:11 Eastern time.  A healthy 8 lbs, 5 oz, 21 inches long, and I haven't seen him yet.  His name is Riley and everyone says he looks like his dad (my grandson), so that means blue-eyed with super-light-colored, blond hair.

I have no cards to post today and will probably not have any until maybe Sunday afternoon, since I'm required to be away from home at a conference until late Saturday evening.  If I get some pictures of him, I'll post them.  After all, if Honey gets her picture on the blog, isn't Riley even more important?  lol

Hugging myself with glee and pride!  NanaConnie

Awww.......so happy for you! Nothing better in the world than a brand new baby.
Just wanted to let you know that I took your advice and entered the challenge this week at Dude Time Doodles. I didn't blog about it yet, just linked my Splitcoast photo.
