Sean is so perfect and as cute as a button. He doesn’t cry, he squeaks. He won’t open his eyes though, probably still to bright for him. Such a good baby, he is. I loved cuddling with him and I cried the first time I held him.
Sean was born last night at 11:19pm. He weighed 6 pounds 15 oz so a pound smaller then Jordan and 5 oz bigger then Jarrod. Sean is 18 inches which is a inch shorter then Jarrod was. He looks a lot like Bailey and has Jarrod’s little mouth. He puckers up and it is so cute!
Bailey is a wonderful big sister. She had to hold him every chance she got… I can understand that because I feel the same way! I had to laugh though when Bailey was talking with the nurse about something and said “and when you have to put him back in my mommy’s tummy…” I can’t even remember what it was she was talking about because I was laughing so hard. She also was very curious on the cord. I told her that is how he ate when he was in his mommy’s tummy and then when Skye started nursing him, it confused her more. What kind of person eats through their belly button then eats from mommy’s boob!
Bailey is so loveable. She hugs me and says “you’re my grandma huh?” When I say “yes” she hugs me and says “I love you” How can you not melt at such sweetness. She and Emma have a good time together, most of the time. They play together then get mad at each other then play together again. It is normal and a way to learn how to deal with relationships and feelings. To much arguing gets them a nap though.
Jarrod signs adoption papers tomorrow and then it just has to go through court for Bailey to be legally a Gose. It will be nice for their little family to be whole like that.
I do love my little grandkids… all three of them.

Well little Sean, seems you are doing things at your own pace and that is good. Your mommy is in labor with you as we speak and I am so excited and can’t wait to meet you. Now if you wait until tomorrow, I will be there to help greet you into this world… well at the hospital anyway… but don’t wait on my account ok? You are my first grandson and I know we will have loads of fun together over the years. I can’t wait until I can hold you in my arms!
Now when you are older and you read this, you may not get the jest of it, but I have to laugh at your mommy, she is at the hospital and in labor and posting on Face book (a social network). Of course when you get older, you will have so much more cooler things then Face book and My Space. When your daddy was born there wasn’t much out there, no one had home computers or even cordless phones let alone cell phones that you can access the internet with like a computer! Yes, it will seem that he is from the olden, olden days and then you will hear stories of how when I was young we didn’t even have VCR’s or home movies that had sound! Yes, we are all ancient but not as much as my grandparents who grew up not always having indoor plumbing and running water! Time will go fast and you will be crawling and walking and talking in no time, but right now I want to enjoy every moment I can with you and watching you grow into a fine young man. I love you, little Sean, I love you more then you could ever know. Have a safe birth, baby, and I thank God for the gift of you, my first grandson.
Love,
Grandma Shari
