My Newest Granddaughter

avery mckenna, may 22, 1:25 pm, 6 lbs 12 oz, 19 1/2 in long

So...after going to the hospital at 11:30 pm and then being given an ambient [sleep aid] and sent back home at 3 am...Ashley woke up at home late this morning in 'active labor'.  So off the the hospital...again....but this time she didn't get past the ER.  She was re-registering when she had a 'gotta push' contraction and her water broke so they zipped her into one of the ER rooms and 2 pushes later there was Avery! 
Ashley called me 20 minutes later.

    My beloved grandmother Olive would have been 111 today, (and my ex's birthday too [not so beloved], but we aren't going there, are we?!)

    Avery is JUST BEAUTIFUL!
