Baby Guy Preston Weber has arrived. Our seventh grandchild.

It was yesterday, between four and five in the afternoon. He weighed eight pounds, eleven ounces.

Brittany delivered in a snap, with no problems.

I have arrived

Ember was able to come over shortly afterwards, to greet her baby brother.

No; we were not there. We're going to meet him in a few weeks.

When some of the dust has settled, as it were.

Hi Mommy

In five weeks or so, we will have another baby boy: Chad and Erica's second son.

Our eighth grandchild. Then we will have four girls and four boys.

I think I'll sleep. No; I think I'll eat. Wait.

Four being my favorite number, I'm really into the sound of that.

Meanwhile we have all hungrily devoured the pictures and videos Andrew has sent.

As I commented on one of our family texts last night, you'd think Andrew was proud of that kid or something.

I admit to having some verklempt moments, remembering the day our own baby son was born more than thirty-four years ago.

And now his baby son has been born.

And the years will tumble on willy-nilly like a blur, and we'll be astonished at how swiftly this baby grows.

And on and on it goes.

And that is all for now.
