Robert Hal Emmett has arrived
Brian called shortly after 7 AM to let us know of the safe arrival of a healthy baby boy - Robert Hal Emmett, named after his two grandpas. All 9 pounds 12 ounces of him. With tears in my eyes I'm saying, "Way To Go JACKIE!" Keep an eye on Brian and Jackie's blog for updates and photos.
hip-hip hooray! By what variant of the name is he to be called: Robert, Rob, Robbie, Bert, Bobby or plain old Bob
ReplyDeleteWell done Jackie, Brian, and Robert Hal! To celebrate, we're off to see Merrick and his parents.
ReplyDeleteWhat a relief to have him finally here. Apparently they come when they are ready, not necessarily when we are ready. It may be an old wives tale but someone said the bigger they are, the easier they are to take care of - we'll hope so anyway. Congratulations to Jackie and Brian!
ReplyDeleteAll good (large) things come to those who wait. Nice work Jackie, glad to hear you're both doing well.
ReplyDeleteI am THRILLED to have Robert here safe and sound!

Congratulations and well done Brian and Jackie! (I guess the "well done" goes mostly to Jackie, but I won't make it exclusive until I hear what, if any, role Brian may have had in the actual delivery process).
ReplyDeleteMary knows all about those big babies and as I recall that was the same weight as "little" Emily when she was born.
