She's here!!!!!!!!!

Violet Nicole
6 lbs, 5 oz
almost 19 inches long 

In Grandpa's lap just 3 hours after her birth.
The nurse said Violet is "aggressive" 
"She is beautiful, healthy and perfect." to quote her Grandma Lynn

We all cannot get over how much she looks like Elora...can you see it?
Erin is doing really well and looks fabulous.

We will have Elora and Cami with us all weekend. 
Later I will be posting pictures here for Erin to see since she misses them. 
The hospital is on flu alert so the girls cannot see the baby until she comes home. 
So Grandpa is trying to set up Skype for tonight.

Being a grandma is the best!
 A heavenly day.

She is so pretty!!! She looks healthy and I hope Erin is doing well also. Too bad for the girls not to be able to see their little sister for a couple of days. Thanks for sharing the pictures!

Oh Jilll, what a beuatiful child! Her features are so perfect. I know how happy you must be.

Our newest great grandddaughter is over a month old. She doesn't live very far, less than two hours, but her mother always says it just isn't a good time for us to visit. I'm beginning to wonder if we ever will see this child.

You are so blessed to have such a happy family.

That's a funny way to describe a new baby. I guess she's a good nurser, eh?

Oh, Jill, I was busting to read this post! I knew your granddaughter was due around Valentine's Day and my blog would not let me visit other blogs so I missed all this. When I finally got here today I forced myself to start from where I had left off. (But I did peek at the pictures first!)
Violet is adorable! She's just absolute perfection! And I agree that being a grandma is the best too!
JOY TO ALL!
Love and Prayers,
Eileen
