Introducing bonus-grandson #3

He's here. Little Man Chevy was born January 6th, 2010 at 15.45, weighing in at 7.7 lbs. Besides his parents, doctors and hospital staff, me and Diver Dude were the first to meet him. We were introduced to our new family member via Skype an hour after he was born. Skype rocks! And without further ado, here he is, the handsome fellow:
Little Man Chevy
And for good measure here's his proud big brothers: Sta-Bas...
... and Froggy-Boy

It's a strange feeling becoming a grandmother when you're not yet a mother. It's a bizarre mix of happiness and emptiness that is very hard to describe. I am truly blessed to have this wonderful bonus-family in my life, I can only wish to someday experience what it's like to have children and grandkids to which I don't have to add the word "bonus". Someday. Today I celebrate being a bonus-grandmother :)

    Congrats! I can only imagine that does bring forth lots of different emotions. I have a feeling you'll get there soon.

    Hope they are able to keep warm (they live in Florida, right?). It has been SOOOO cold here!
