Big Sister Addie



Addie became a big sister Monday afternoon at 1:46. Grady Lane Weston was born weighing 6lbs 14 oz and is 19 and 3/4 inches long. Dr. Cox let Bryan deliver him...definitely something he will never forget! He looks just like Addie did and is so sweet. Addie calls him Gravy and loves helping with his diapers and his pacifier. Anytime he cries she asks me if I am going to give him a little bit of milk...so funny...and today told me to "put Gravy down" before I could read her a book. She continues to ask us where his mommy and daddy are and we can definitely tell that she is a little sad but hopefully she will get back to her normal happy self soon!!! We drove home from San Antonio yesterday and it is really nice to be home! Grady loves to snuggle up close to us...although I told Bryan that he is already deprived because he is not held near as much as Addie was! Although I do not quite know what to do with a boy (no bows, dress up, tutu's, and accessories) I am so thrilled to enter into a world of trucks, trains and dinosaurs. Bryan and I are so lucky to have such a wonderful family and look forward to watching Addie and Grady discover each other in the months to come!

On our way to the hospital.
It's a boy!!!
Addie was so excited to FINALLY wear her big sister shirt! Addie is meeting Grady for the first
time.
Grady left the hospital in the same outfit that Bryan wore home from the hospital. He looked so handsome!

All ready to go home! We were a little sad to leave our suite at the hospital. We were treated like royalty and waited on hand and foot! However, we were too excited to see Addie to stay any later!

Finally some pictures.....he looks as handsome in that outfit as his daddy did. We are so thrilled with Grady's safe arrival and his addition to our family. Had to make a special trip to the Dallas Cowboy store for him this week@@@!!! We can't wait to meet and love on him in person...

Congrats! He is beautiful! I was so surprised when Debbie called me and told me it was a boy! I just knew you were having another girl! And I was scared to death to enter the world of trucks and dirt and all things boy, but I love it now! I love having both, a girl and a boy, its the best of both worlds!
Congrats again!
Love,
Corrie
