Baby DIG is Here!!!

Our little baby DIG is here...finally. Little Davis Ian Garner came into the world on July 5th...I am not sure about the time, but I believe it was after 6 am. He came in weighing 5lbs 15 oz and 19 inches long (my info. comes from Aunt Gail). I don't want to brag, but isn't he just beautiful...the most handsome baby boy ever. He must have been anxious to see us, because Grandpa tells us that mommy wasn't even in labor 3 hours. Note to Adam and Jessica if you have more children, never play around about getting to the hospital if you even think a little bit that you might be in labor. LOL I would have posted this earlier, but I was waiting on photos to be sent to me of this little handsome fellow. I know I have already said this, but isn't he just the prettiest little boy you have ever seen.

Davis Ian Garner aka Baby DIG. Isn't he just precious? I am already planning on spoiling him rotten.

The proud parents of Davis...our niece and husband Adam and Jessica (giggle box) Garner. Don't they have that proud parents look???

Look at all that hair that little DIG is sporting. I can't wait to see him.

We want to say congratulations to Adam and Jessica. Also Congrats to Grandpa and Grandma...Mark's brother, Dwight and his wife Patricia. I can't wait to love on little Davis and spoil him just a wee bit. This is the first boy in our immediate Garner family since Mark was born 50 years ago...you know we are not going to spoil him one bit. Just know Baby DIG that you are very much loved....we have loved you since your mommy told us about you. Also remember, Aunt Tracey is Baby DIG's favorite. We will work on that when I see you. I will help you learn to say that sentence. LOL

Welcome to the world Davis Ian Garner. It's already a better place since you arrived....WE LOVE YOU!!!

Trustworthy!!

Okay, I am in Walmart getting a few more VBS items, and I hear this loud scream/crying sound. Naturally it is on the aisle I headed to next. I rounded the corner and found the source for all that racket. A sweet little 7 month old sitting in the buggy, and she is not happy to be at Walmart. I speak to her and she stops crying and smiles. Okay, I am hooked. I keep talking and she starts smiling and playing. I noticed that her mom is at the end of the aisle grabbing everything she can before Chloe (found out her name) starts screaming again. I am not sure how it happened, but I ended up following Chloe and Suzanne (the mom) down every aisle. I played with Chloe while the mom shopped. Then Chloe started reaching for me and her mom just said casually that she wanted me to hold her. Stop!!! I don't know these people. I asked if that was okay, and she said yes. So me with Chloe in my arms follows mom down the aisle. I just came in to buy a clock and pick up crackers. Her mom looked so frazzled and on the verge of a break down, that I had to help her. I remembered what my friend Amy Henderson (can't remember her married name) said about being that mom when a child wouldn't stop crying. What did I give up? 30 minutes of time in my not so busy day. I couldn't believe that a mother trusted a stranger like that...although I have an angelic face(Mark rolls his eyes as he reads that part). Which I did stay close to mom, and didn't take her baby out of her sight. Chloe was the perfect angel for me. I was glad to help out. I just wonder what went through mom's (Suzanne's) head when she fully digested that she let a stranger hold her baby?? Better yet, I wonder if she told her husband?? She just looked so helpless and ready to cry herself. Chloe's problem is teething...she gnawed my finger to death. Luckily, she had teething rings in the diaper bag. I think mom was too over whelmed and maybe hungry and tired from the heat to put it all together. Over all I think I got a real bargain at Walmart today. A chance to help a stranger and 30 minutes to entertain one of the cutest babies ever. Thanks for trusting me!! The pleasure today was all mine.
