She is a wonderfully beautiful blessing. Welcome to the world little Emma.

Happy grandmothering wishes to you, Kelly!

How beautiful! I'm sure you'll do your best to spoil her rotten.

Congrats to all involved!

Oh Kelly, congratulations!!! Emma is beautiful!

The children must be so excited to be Aunts and Uncles. Grandma is a hard name to get used to though I must say. I used to think of Grandmothers as little old gray haired ladies, but of course once I became one, that went right out of my mind.

Have fun with her and spoil, spoil, spoil! It's so much fun.

Kelly,
Congrats to you and the whole family! Emma is gorgeous! Please tell David and Keslie we all send our best to them.

I had to do a double take when I saw the names they chose: Emma was my grandmother's name and mine is Christine:)

Congratulations Kelly. What a beautiful baby! You will just love being a Grandma. My grandson is 9 months now and he is such a blessing to us. Whenever AD gets me down I call next door and say "I need baby time" and within minutes he is in my arms and cheering me up.

What a cutie! Congratulations!

Thank you everyone, we are so thrilled and still cannot believe she is here with us. Snickers, our oldest daughter's middle name is Kristine, and Keslie's mother and grandmother have the middle name of Christine, so welcome to our club, or are we welcome to your club?!

I took several 5X7 pictures of Emma over to show my mom and tell her about her new great-granddaughter yesterday. I showed her the picture and the first thing she said was, "Did you have another baby?" Then I explained that she was David and Keslie's baby over and over, but it never seemed to register even though David and Keslie go visit her. She loved the pictures though and kept saying how cute she was and how pretty. She even talked to her pictures when I was busy doing something else, it was soo sweet. She said all kinds of funny things around the few things that made sense, but she loved on her pictures and that made me happy.

My dad seems quite cheered by little Emma's arrival which is wonderful. He needs more happiness these days. He held her the night she was born and told her she was born into a wild bunch and she had a lot to live up to!!! It was as though no one else was in the room when he was talking to her!

David, Keslie and Emma are doing splendidly, Emma is getting the hang of nursing more all the time, Keslie is calm and not stressed, she is such a dear. Did I mention I got to be there when she was born???? Ohhhh, what an experience to watch each person involved working together in such a calm, peaceful way to help Keslie give birth. David was incredible as was Keslie. ~Tears of joy~

Must run before I start bawling all over the keyboard, done enough of that lately!!!!

I thank each one of you for your encouragement. I think of you all the time and am amazed at the daily sacrificial labors you go to for your special ones. Keep up the good work each of you, you are an inspiration to many more than you will ever know.

Thankfully, ~Kelly~

Hi Kelly, I just have to tell you what my mom (stage 6) did just after my grandson was born. She went baby crazy but not about human babies. When we went for a walk she would see baby birds, baby bees, baby leaves. Anything that was small was automatically a baby. It was so funny and so hard to keep a straight face when she was telling me. On her angry days now my grandson is the only one that can bring a smile to her face. He is such a sweetie too because he will hold his arms out to her to give her a hug. Babies are so wonderful.

Aw congrats!

Congratulations Kelly,

I just got on long enough to tell you how beautiful Emma is. You will enjoy her more than you ever thought possible. Who ever said grandkids are the best knew what they were talking about.

I hope your mother enjoys her as much as Bill enjoyed the kids.

So exciting! Congratulations.

My son and daughter in law brought Emma to meet my mom on Sat., ohhh, it was quite emotional. She saw her right away and went to her, then my son had her sit down and put little, tiny Emma in Mom's arms. I stayed right there not knowing what she would do. Mom smiled a lot, said lots of funny things that didn't make any sense, but she liked to look at Emma and talk to her, saying how pretty she was. Then, like a little child she was done in a few minutes. Lots of tears from the rest of us. My sister was here from out of state so she got to be part of it, that was priceless.

Thank you all for your congratulations, you are right Joyce, grandchildren are more than special.

Congratulations Kelly. Emma is beautiful. You will love being a grandma
