Short and very sweet



At 20.25 inches Rowan is short compared to the rest of us and he's very sweet. A couple more pictures:




Roxie gave me permission to wallow in grandparenthood so I'm taking full advantage this week (then I promise I'll revert to other subjects most of time). Rowan came home yesterday and met his furry housemates (2 dogs and a cat). The are not terribly impressed with him so far, but don't like him being in the way of THEIR mom's lap. He was mellow yesterday but had his first non-sleeping, fussy night for his mom and dad. I got up at 3:30 AM to see if any help was needed but they deferred until tonight. Son is going back to work tomorrow so I'm probably on duty while he sleeps.

Rowan liberally sprinkled my son this morning during diaper change, so I think the baptism of new parents has begun :-)

Having girls, I never got "baptized" by a son. I do,however, have a brother who is 10 years younger and he left his mark on me! I'm jealous over here! I'd love me some baby time.

And the thing about it is, new daddy will brag about that sprinkle in terms that will make you think of firehoses and rocket ships. Wallow on, grandma!

He's adorable, Galad, you go right on wallowing. He's also blessed to have a grandmother like you.

OMG--very very sweet! (And right on schedule-- night time fussiness, parental baptism... ladies and gentlemen, it's DEFINITELY a boy!)
