Welcome back, Betty. I've been sort of silent lately, had the durn .vbs worm virus and had to have that cleaned up and that has been the past couple weeks. Prior to that I was at Twentynine Palms Marine Corp Base from Nov 5 - Nov 17 awaiting the "pending" arrival of my first great grandson (have 4 great granddaughters) who decided to wait until I left before making in his appearance. Guess he didn't think he needed to be more "spoiled" <grin>. He was born November 19, 2000 at 5:29 p.m. (and that was prox 3 hours after I got home) and weighed in at a whopping 9 pds 12-1/2 ozs and 20-1/2" long. That might be alright but my granddaughter is a mere 5'2" (if that) and a whopping wet 95 pounder. Daddy is a strappling 6 footer. He joins sister Victoria Antoinette (Tori) who turned 16 months on Nov 7. He has been named Ethan Thomas and is gorgeous (yes, even for a boy). Blue eyes, and blonde fuzzy hair. Gonna be a heart throb, no ands, ifs or buts about it. Are we proud or are we not. These are my daughter Sabrina's grandchildren. You will remember my daughter Sabrina as the one with the two inoperable tumors on her brain. She is doing very well considering all that. And we do have all our friends at NEWGEN to thank for all the prayers and well wishes that were sent to her and to our families. Wishing all of you a very Merry Christmas and a most prosperous New Year ever. Antoinette (and her "whole entire" family) waughtel@oz.net Will still be a bit slow until after the Holidays ~ gonna have a houseful this year!!!
