Andrew Arrives

This morning at 11:48, Andrew Oliver Perry was forced to join the outside world. Mom kept trying to convince him that it was just as nice inside as out, but he was having nothing of it. So, he was born by c-section just like the other 3 of my grandchildren. I am staying at Joe and Jody's house with Aiden for a couple of nights and am having trouble downloading pictures on their equipment, and I do not know the password to their wireless, so you will have to wait a few days for the pics. He was shorter (20.5 inches) and weighed a bit less (7 lbs, 6 oz.) than Aiden. His skin tone is lighter than Aiden's, and he does not look as thin. Big brother Aiden (at a whole 21 months) started crying when Daddy showed Andrew to him, because Andrew wanted to eat and suddenly started crying himself. But he slowly warmed up to him and eventually touched his hand with a big smile on his face. Mom is feeling better this time, and it is a good thing. She will have her hands full with her two little boys. More soon...
