Say Hello to Little Twizlet!

Yesterday we were all planning to go to the museum when Teach texted me with, "Um... just kidding. We aren't going to come. The contractions are too strong. I don't want to get that far away from the hospital.:/"

As you know, we went anyway.

On our way home from the museum, I texted her again.



We have been at the hospital since noon. The doctor just called and said based on the reports they are going to keep me here, start me on medicine, break my water and have a baby tonight! 
The kids were so excited! But things were moving so slowly.  At 6:30 PM we headed out to see the new Batman Lego Movie with Crafty's free passes. I kept peeking at my phone inside my jacket, but nothing. 

We got the kids to bed and I pounded out a quick post with a teaser (that no one asked about!), and just before 1:00 AM I dropped into bed. 
At 4:30 AM the phone rang and I could hear my brand new granddaughter screaming in the background. She was so angry! And Teach was so happy...
 
And baby makes 3.


 We talked for about 5 minutes and then I sent her off to spend those first precious moments with her little one. Official stats: 8 lbs 5 oz, 19 1/2 inches long, and as you can see, tons of hair!


My sweetie and I got over there a little later this afternoon and got to hold her and inhale her straight-from-heaven sweetness. I will see if Teach and Twiz can update more later so you know everything. But tonight I believe they are getting some well-deserved rest. Maybe...

It could happen...
