A New Granddaughter!

Ella has a new baby sister, born in August to Seth and Julie.
Isn't she beautiful? Can you tell Ella likes having a new sister? Her name is Macie Jane Parkinson and she's a petite little gal! That's grandbaby number 34!

Bob and I were headed for Southern Utah to attend the Shakespearean Festival when she arrived a couple of weeks early, so it was a few days before we could make our way to the Parkinson home to help the family make the transition from 5 children to 6, three boys and three girls. Bob kept the older children entertained with golf and other entertainment while we did our best to get Macie started in life. She's a good baby, but a newborn none the less. Her older sister, McKenna, was the only girl until about 3 years ago and now she has two little sisters.

What a joy these sweet little grandchildren are to us. We'd love to have a dozen more...not sure that's in the cards but each baby is so very welcome in our family. We all love babies! I know, that's hard to tell.
