Gabriel Edward Welsh entered the world.
Gabe is going to be a tall young man because he got a jumpstart at a lengthy 23 inches.
He weighed 9 pounds, 10 ounces at birth.
Gabe has the longest fingers I have seen on a newborn.
And he is handsome!
All of his aunts and uncles that live close by have been able to
watch him grow and change in the first few days of his life.
What a blessing.
We missed out on being able to watch the daily changes of a
newborn with Cale & Zack, and are thankful to have Gabe & his parents living with us for now.
Next week Gabe and his parents will move into their own place.
I am budgeting extra dollars for gas money as I expect more trips to and from Portland are in our future. We all need our 'baby' time even if all we do is nap together.
I know if my dad were here he would take one look at Gabe and exclaim, "Yep, He's a keeper!"
Every year our family grows bigger. I am anxious to see what the coming year holds for the Ranney-Brown-Herrmann-Welsh clan!
Happy Half birthday to my oldest Melissa! Celebrate Well!
