"theyhadababyit'saboy"

     Do you remember those commercials from I don't know how many years back... back before everybody and their brother had cell phones... back when there were pay phones every where and you could call collect if you didn't have change on you?
     The commercial I'm referring to, shows a middle aged couple sitting in their living room. The phone rings, and the man answers it. You hear the voice of an operator asking him if he will accept a collect phone call and then you see a younger man (who is suppose to be stating his name) say "Wehadababyit'saboy". The older man says no to the operator and gets disconnected. He then picks his newspaper back up and continues reading.
     The wife inquires "who was on the phone?". Dead panned, the man replies, "___ (Sons name) they had a boy".

     Well.... Byron called... not collect, since that option is no longer available on our phone...but....

 THEY HAD THEIR BABY - IT IS A BOY!!!!! :-D !!!!! :-> !!!!
     Isn't he just so-o-o precious looking?!?!?!!!
     (Guys - he's a BABY! it's okay if I say that about him !!! ;->)

     And CUTE!!!
  
     And I wish I was there, sitting on a stool, starry eyed watching him through the nursery window. . . . . like we were with Analyse.

     Awww well.. Fri. evening IS coming.... It is, right???

    So far, the only info. I have is: he's here. Around 8:48 Illinois time this morning. He weighed in at 7 pounds 4 ounces. Mommy is doing good. Daddy is super tired (he worked all night). He's a cutie. No, no definite first name has been chosen yet. And I have full permission to post all about it! :->

    Welcome to our family precious little grand son!! We're thrilled and blessed to be your grand parents!! (yes, I'm all teary eyed typing this... you'll get use to that about me ;->)
