Welcome to the World, Milo

On December 11, 2012 at 4:04 p.m. (Central Time) our newest grandson, Milo Andrew Stott, was born by emergency c-section.  He was a week past his due date, but even so, his birth weight was still less than any of my children.  He weighed 7lbs. 5 oz. and was 19 1/2" long.  He is such a cute little guy and I can't wait to meet him in person next week (if Emily is feeling well enough to travel from Memphis to L.A.).  Here are some pictures shared by his parents - Kyle and Emily.

Emily will be a wonderful mother!

Ready to go home
According to Kyle, except for being tired, Emily is feeling pretty well and they are very hopeful of being able to travel to California for Christmas next week.  I am hopeful of that too. It would be very disappointing for us if they couldn't come, but of course we would understand if they decided they couldn't make it.  Emily's health at this time is top priority.....along with taking care of the needs of little Milo.  Welcome to the world, Milo.  We gladly accept you into our family!



For fun, as a comparison, here is Kyle as a newborn - all 11lbs. 11oz. of him.
