Congratulate me!

I AM A GRANDMA!!!

THIS IS JOSEPH.

Well, MOST of the rest of the family! I just realized my husband and 7-year-old Sean were left out of this set of photos! *fail*

First, this is Olivia when she was pregnant with Joseph.

Joseph Gregory was born Tuesday, July 27, 2010. He weighed 8 lbs. 8 oz. at birth and was 54 cm long (which is really long). LOL. When I first saw him he was RED. Like, bright red, and he still is! And he has really long arms and legs. And big feet! LOL.

Another Joseph closeup.

Joseph with his parents. (They were both super tired and awake for approx. 48 hours at this point! Greg looks like shit, but I can't believe Olivia doesn't!)

Olivia with Joseph, my son Jamie and me (I look like a total freak and I am sooooo tired at this time as well!)

My son Jamie, his girlfriend Kari, and me with Joseph!

My parents would approve of Joseph I'm sure. This is our family plot where they now abide. ♥

Congrats honey! What a cutesy wee one (even if he's tall) :)

Thanks Rhaps!
LOL...his legs have no chubbiness...they are long and kind of skinny. And his arms are hilariously long. Awww...poor little thing! :)♥

CONGRATULATIONS!!!
He is adorable xD

Thank you! He is a little cutie and has tons of attitude! XD

Congratulations! That's fantastic news!

Thank you! I am happy. :)

CONGRATULATIONS!!!! :)
You have a beautiful family! And Joseph is adorable!!

Thank you! Awww...little Joseph is a delight! ♥

Congratulations! He's so cute. You all are. &hearts

Thank you so much! The baby is truly a sweetie. :)

Congratulations on the new arrival, I love the name Joseph, it's Kian's middle name !!

Hey! We both have good taste! LOL.
Not that I named him, of course, but I really do like the name as well! Thanks! :)

Congratulations!! Joseph Gregory is a great name :oD He looks so perfect! What wonderful family photos <3

Thank you! I like the name a lot. XD
He looks really good for 2 days old in those photos! LOL. And you can't see how red he is. Hahaha. I am sure that will go away soon. :)

congratulations! what a little darling, maybe football is in his future!

Thanks! Well, he is very active, so who knows? LOL. We are an athletic family. His mom played top-level softball, his dad is a fitness instructor and his uncle (my son Jamie) is almost 6'5" and plays NFL-style football, baseball and basketball! I always thought he would have made a great goalkeeper! XDDD

Congrats!!

Thank you! :)

OMG he is so handsome Congrats to your son and Daughter in Law and you of course.

Thank you! I'll pass along your well-wishes! :)

Congratulations, grandma *lol* it's so hard to believe Olivia has a baby now! She looks great! Aww, Joseph is adorable. Thanks for sharing the pics ♥

Thanks! It's a bit hard to get my head round the "grandma" thing. Well, not really, I think it's just the name, not how I feel! LOL. I figure as long as I can keep lusting after the footballer hotties, I'm not that old! LMAO.

Yeah, well, Olivia was the one who said she never wanted kids! Go figure! LOL.

Joseph is a real cutie and already has a major attitude. You can see he wants to be in charge, so that will have to be taken care of. LOL.♥

omg he is so ADORABLE!!!
CONGRATS =)

THANK YOU!!! :)

CONGRATS to mother and child and to grandma!

AAAAA, I can't believe I never commented on this! Sorry for the incredible lateness, but CONGRATULATIONS!!! Was Olivia pregnant already when you ladies visited me last year? I hope this question isn't impertinent, but my mum actually asked it when I told her that you had become a grandma. LOL, I still can't really believe you're a grandma! :D Anyway, all the best for you and your family, and give Olivia a big hug from me (and sorry again for the lateness). :D

Well, I don't know how I missed replying to this!!! *headdesk*

THANKS! Er, no, Bill, Olivia wasn't pregnant when we visited you last year. See, Olivia isn't an elephant. XD Since we visited you in April 2009 and she gave birth to Joseph in July 2010, she would have had to have been pregnant for 15-16 months (elephant pregnancy duration = 22 months, human = 9 months), so it would have been close to an elephant's duration. XDDDDD

/*removes tongue from cheek*

I hope you don't mind me being facetious with you! LMAO. But I couldn't resist!

LOL.
