GRAMMOLOUS ADDIE

I am officially a grandma, a grandmother, a grandmama, a grandina, an abuelita, or how about GRADDIE!?

Here's the little guy that made it all happen!

After the ordeal the little guy went through to get here, he needs a nap!!

First thing a saw when I walked in the room were these little legs!!

Proud Ama Prieta.....I could cry!

Tired mommy and daddy are glad it's all over with!

It's amazing to see the tiny perfection in his tiny little fingers.

I think I ate all the brownies myself, and the kids LOVED taking big bits ouf of the onesie cookies!
The white choc chip cookies were made especially for the father-to-be since he's allergic to chocolate!
