The "four seasons" in California: Fire, flood, quake and mud. ;)

What a sweet little miracle newborn babies are. You'll have a blast spoiling her rotten. After all this waiting...did you have your make-up still on???
xsteen will be impressed with the vow for Lilly clothes and a vera bradley set LOL!! congratulations on the BEAUTIFUL granddaughter!
Sis had one in the parking lot of the hospitol.....I wanted them to name him Parke Lot, but Nathan won out.
It is a beeeeeeeeeeeauuuuuuuuutiful Friday morning in Orlando--should stay this way I hope.
Oh, and bad news here, it looks like a lot of the MTV party tents blew down. Real shame.

Congrats!! I couldn't wait to wake up and read the news. My mom started my (4 yr old) daughter on the Bity Betsy size. =)
Ha! I forgot about the MTV awards. Did they cancel them? I'm a bit too gleeful at the thought of all those celebrities stuck in Miami in a hurricane. There are some things money can't buy, and controlling the weather is one of them. =)
Ahem.[clears throat, adjusts necktie]
Still overcast/very grey clouds due to feeder nads coming off Katrin's backsides.
Hallandale Beach w/MIami-Dade neighbor Opa-Locka gets the full scrimmage line with a 7-11 gas station out of commission on A1A;
Opa-Locka Flea Market took a good hazing thanks to the gazebo-quality constuction of the vendor sheds, including some humoingous logs of wood knocked around what looks like a compressed gas tank area...yeek.
Howlin -- you need to print this thread, cut out all the comments, and present it to your grandchild when she is old enough to understand how many people were "pulling" for her during birth!
OH! How precious!!
God bless and congratulations!!
