Our son called today to let us know that our new baby granddaughter was born this morning.  She was somewhere around 12 days past due and her mom was more than eager to deliver!  The new baby is Adelia Jolyn and she weighed 9 lbs. 5 oz. and was 21" long.  I have seen 2 photos of her that her parents put on Facebook but I probably won't get to see her in person for a long time.  We live in Michigan and my son and his family live in the state of Washington.  So, we will have to be content with photos and news.

My second grandbaby was born in Texas and I live in Illinois so I haven't seen her in person yet. But her parents do post pics of her and her brother on facebook.

My next to the last grandbaby, also a girl, was born in Georgia and I didn't see her until Thanksgiving when she was 4 months old. It was great to see her and her brother then. I hadn't seen her brother in over 3 years (and he's 4 years old).

No, we don't have a web cam. That's a good idea though.
