Our newest grandbaby was due today. But when I awoke on Saturday morning I noticed I had two text messages. The first came from my daughter, sent at 7:28 a.m. and said, "Headed to hospital." The second, sent at 9:17 a.m., said, "Baby boy born 8:39 this morning." It was accompanied by a photo.
We're welcoming little Noah, the newest bud on our family tree. We've had conversations and congratulations, welcomes and virtual kisses and hugs plus photos to keep up with his welcome home by his brothers and sister. Thank goodness for the immediacy of virtual technology! We'll get to meet him in a few days.
My daughter tells me he's a serious sleeper -- during the day -- but not so much at night.
Isn't this about the easiest way possible to add to a family tree? No searching, no uncertainty, just a new baby, a new name, a date and location, all provided by the parents.
Welcome, welcome, Noah! We're looking forward to meeting you, sweet boy.

Congratulations! I love entering a new baby to family trees!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Carol. Yes, that's a very fun part of family history!
DeleteWhat a perfect little boy You must be so happy. Congratulations to all!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Robin. I've only seen photos but he does look perfect to me. His mom tells me he doesn't have a quiet time of it. His siblings (ages 6, almost 5, and almost 3) want to hold and cuddle him all the time. I guess he'll get used to interruptions to his sleep and learn to sleep through them.
DeleteCongratulations on the new addition to your family! You're right, it is very quick and easy to add a name to the family tree software with easily available facts!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Shasta! Easy family history is nice change sometimes.
DeleteA very belated but heart-felt congratulations! Nothing better than that fresh newborn baby smell. Happy times ahead!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Wendy. He was here over Christmas and is just the sweetest little fellow.
