Thursday - A new grandson



We had a visit from the stork last night around 9:01 pm.
He dropped off a little 7 pound 12 ounce boy!



Mother and baby are doing great and PRAISE GOD he is perfect (according to his daddy).



He was 19 1/2 inches long.




His name is going to be William or Josh - which do you like best?



No this is not his picture - they forgot to bring the camera - can you believe it - too nervous I guess.



I WANT TO THANK ALL OF YOUR FOR PRAYING - I'M SURE GOD HEARD OF ALL YOU! THANK YOU.


It's not about us...It's not about us being a part of a Christian bubble...It's about us being a part of the real world.

Love grandma chatty crone . . .

PS I have two boy grandsons now and one boy dog grandson! 3 boys - teehee

So today I am rich:

Wealth is not measured by your assets, but by your access to them.
From above, wealth pours down in buckets. Those who hold their hands over their heads and run for shelter remain poor-—no matter how much they have. Those who look up at the sky and smile are rich.

Well congratulations! He sounds just perfect.
I prefer Josh, but that was the name of an old high school friend and he was such a nice guy, so that name makes me think of him.

Congrats on the new Grandbaby, I had 2 Grandsons before my 2 Granddaughters came along.
1 each for each of my 2 boys. Babies are truly God's gift to the world.

Again, congradulations!! Can't wait to see pictures!! I think I like both names equally! And love that very last quote! I think your kids must not be bloggers, or they would have never forgotten the camera!

Melanie said...

Congratulations! So glad to hear things went well!! :)

Granny Annie said...

Joshua William and call him "Josh". Congratulations Granny Chatty Crone:)

Debbie said...

CONGRATULATIONS, GRANDMA CRONE!
(Or it is Chatty Grandma? I think I like that better.)

I'm so glad you have another grandson to love. I like both names and don't have a preference.

God bless your whole family!

Lois Christensen said...

Congratulations!!! We forgot our camera also! But then again our first was 6 weeks early! Hope all is well and we can see some pictures soon!

Sallie (FullTime-Life) said...

Again, Congratulations to all of you! Hope they get some pictures real soon.

Susan said...

Oh Sandie...When will you get to see the baby? I like the name Josh the best but William is okay,too. Hope you have a great night, dreaming of that sweet new little angel.

Thanks so much for visiting my blog and commenting, Sandie. I appreciate your visits so much. Susan

Angela said...

Congratulations Sandie!

It seems as though I forgot the camera with my second one. He was a month early so that could be why. My husband got the camera the next morning when he had to go home to feed the dog.

I had a good friend in school named William. I like a good manly name! hehehe

Hugs,
Angela

Pat MacKenzie said...

Congratulations. So glad the wait is over.

Doris Sturm said...

CONGRATULATIONS, Sandie, so did your grandson come naturally without your DIL having to be induced?

That's wonderful...and he's perfect! Praise God! I'm so happy for you and your family.

God bless you!

Linda O'Connell said...

congratulations and God bless your little baby boy.

Sharon said...

Again, my heartfelt congratulations on the "better late than never" arrival!!

For no particular reason, I'm kinda partial to William.

Can't wait to see pictures!

Keep looking up, showers of blessings pour down - drench me, Lord!!

GOD BLESS!

Jenny said...

Oh hooray, hooray! I came to see if there was news and then I saw this wonderful post!

Congratulations to all...and both names are perfect!

Big hugs and much happiness to you Grandma!

Mevely317 said...

Hiiiii Sandie!
I'm newly back from vacation, but couldn't wait to see if you were a Grandma again .... congratulations!!!!!!!!
Personally, I like "Josh" ... but come to think of it, both names would sound good together (William Josh), (Josh William).
'Can't wait to see pictures ... I know you can't wait to hold your precious bundle :)

BECKY said...

Congrats again, Sandie!

Just Be Real said...

Congratualtions Chatty:)

Unknown said...

Huge congrats to the parents! Since my son is a William and I love the name Josh, I'd combine the two.

Buttercup said...

Sandie, I am so happy and excited for you! I like William and I like Josh -- though I am partial to biblical names. He is adorable!
