Welcome
to the world!
Hailey Evelyn, little sister to two-year-old Melia, was born on 21st March. She had made a few attempts to become independent of her mummy for several weeks, but was persuaded to stay in situ for a little longer.
She is now at home with the rest of her family, still unfurling like a leaf and completely helpless.
She is the youngest of six grandchildren to our eldest daughter, and thus our sixth great-grandchild.
Babies look perfect, don't they? Well done, great granny, on the birth of Hailey Evelyn.
ReplyDeleteBabies are unbelievable - a blank canvas with a world of possibilities before them.
DeleteOh my, that is one gorgeous baby !! She has my Grandmother's name!! I love her even more! Well done, mother of this one, She's a beauty! Sixth GREAT grand child!!! WOW!
ReplyDeleteIt's odd how names go in and out of vogue. I wonder why. Influence of the rich and famous, maybe.
DeleteHoly mackerel! Six greats? 😲
ReplyDeleteIt comes to us all. I was thinking that if I had married at 16 (I didn't) and my daughter and granddaughter the same, I could be a great-great- great- grandmother by the age of 80! What a prospect.
DeleteCongratulations!
ReplyDeleteThank you.😀
DeleteCongrats on the newest addition!
ReplyDelete😁
DeleteSo beautiful. Congratulations. I'm sure you'll be a great grandma ;)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Debby.😀
DeleteHow wonderful, and welcome Hayley Evelin, she is a beautiful little baby. Congratulations to you all.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Denise.😀
DeleteSIXTH Great Grand!! Congratulations and she is so very beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThere won't be any more greats for a while. The next three grandchildren are busy building careers. 😁
DeleteWhat a joy! Congratulations
ReplyDeleteShe is a joy. Thank you, Judee.
DeleteUnfurling like a leaf... and in Springtime too... beautiful
ReplyDeleteNewborns make their elder siblings look enormous.
DeleteLike a beautiful little doll; look at her lovely hair. Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteThe joke in the hospital was that the baby has more hair than her father. Poor Callum takes it all in good part. He's 28 tomorrow!
DeleteHow wonderful! Many congratulations! 😀
ReplyDeleteThank you, Sal. 😀
DeleteI can't imagine what it is like to be someone who produced children, who went on to have children, who went on to have children. Without you, none of them would exist. I am sure they all love and respect the matriarch of the family. Welcome to the world, Hailey.
ReplyDeleteIt does give me pause for thought, I must say.
DeleteWell, that was a very welcome start to my morning, reading your blogpost over breakfast. Beautiful baby x
ReplyDeleteThank you. Personally, all babies look much the same to the onlooker. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and all that . . .
DeleteHi Janice - congratulations all round I'd say - I just hope all six + families don't turn up to visit all at once?! Wonderful news - cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteWe have had everyone here at once - it's quite an event.
DeleteBeautiful girl, we have not gotten to great grandchildren yet!
