I'm tired tonight so I will make this a short entry. My grandson, Liam Michael, was born at 5:13 this afternoon, weighing in at 7# 3oz. He is beautiful, of course, and his expressions go back and forth between looking like his mama and his daddy. I am so relieved everything is ok and he is finally here.
Tomorrow I will have a pretty busy day of it. Jeannie & Donald are going down to the Bay Area with Joe and Sarah to see a baseball game, and then to Ghirardelli Square after the game. It is sort of like a double date and will be nice for them to go out for a few hours without the kids. I am watching Jeannie's two little girls, and my sister Amy is coming over to help and keep me company, thank God! I will be ready for a camp-out in the woods next week!
I wish Liam's face was a little more clear on the picture, but he is bundled up. It feels so good holding a newborn again.
- Grandkid Week!
Autumn and Arianna (Jeannie's) were over last night for a couple of hours. They are so much fun and I can have adult conversations with them. I hope to see Alyssa and Keira (Joe's) today as I have Keira's birthday present...

Meg took some photos when we first arrived - Donald, Jeannie, Sarah, me, and Joe: (There is much more detail if you click to enlarge the photos). The tables had some of Liam's small dinosaurs with party hats they made for them: Liam enjoyed...
- "down" Time
I've been feeling "down" since my visit with the eye surgeon yesterday. They took many pictures of both eyes, including several of the retinas, and it doesn't look good. He suggested that when I am ready, I can see a retina specialist,...
- Busy Day On Tuesday
Early this morning my son Steve brought Liam over to my house, and his mom Meg picked him up after work. We had a great time. Liam turned 4 in August and is interested in paleontology and Teen-aged Mutant Ninja Turtles. His interest in Paleontology...
- Lifting Weights & Tie-dye
I went shopping this afternoon with Jeannie, Donald, and their two little girls. We first went to Play It Again Sports so that I could get some small hand weights. Used but look-like-new cost $.49 per pound, so that 2 each of 1# and 2# set me back about...
