Our Grandchildren and a Peek at Our Newest Arrival

Garry and I  just got home this evening from a trip to take Mary Elizabeth and Ben back to their home in Little Rock, Arkansas.  Anne and Gene, along with the children, came to spend a week at home.  When it was time to leave, they went ahead with McLean .  In the meantime, we were so happy to spend the time with Ben and Sissy and send them to Mimi and Grandaddy's part of the time so they could enjoy both sets of grandparents.  We left this past Thursday morning for the trip and while we were there, on Friday the 13th, Miss Larken Winter Maitland decided she would make a surprise appearance 13 days early.  She was born at 9:02 a.m., weighed 6 lbs, 8 oz., and was 19 inches long.  Paige had a tough labor, but Mommy and Baby are healthy and happy, ready to spend a few days at home with their new family of four until I come to help out on Tuesday.  Here is a peak at what our darlings look like today!
