FReepers, please join me in welcoming AZ Flyboy's new daughter,Piper Louise Ruth
to our FReeper family.
Az Flyboy's daughter, Piper Louise Ruth (unless they change their minds!) was born at 10:58 AM MST on October 9th, 2003. Mom, daughter, and Dad are all doing quite well. Piper has everything she’s supposed to have, and nothing we can see that she shouldn’t have! Her lungs are in excellent shape! She is just less than an hour old in these pictures.
At birth she weighed 6 lbs. 1 oz., and measured 20½ inches long. Look how she is trying to check out Grampa!
Grandma and Grandpa HJ are holding little Piper...look at that tiny hand.
Grandpa HJ is giving Piper a 'touch kiss'.
Her cheeks are just sooooo soft!
Piper loves her Mommy's daddy, too. Daddy's are really special people, you know!
Mommy's Mommy makes me smile...she's soft and cushy.
Look at all these fingers!
Grampa, that light is bright!
Okay, I can see out of one eye, now. Let's see if I can get the other one open.
Mommy's Mommy is wearing something blue...it's almost the same color as my eyes.
Ok, now I'm in Grandma HJs arms...she makes me want to snuggle down and go to sleep.
Grandma HJs finger is almost as long as my face!
Guess what color my hair is! Oh, you can't see it under my yellow cap. It's black!
Grandma HJ is really cushy, too. I hope she holds me a lot when I get home with Mommy and Daddy!
Ok, I'm going to stay in the hospital with Mommy and Daddy one more day. Mommy has Strep B thingies running around her body, and the nurses want to make sure I don't have them, too. I don't think I do, so I'll get to go home tomorrow.
Brad's Gramma...Grampa told me you two had a conversation a few days ago...did you know my Great-Grandma Palumbo went to be with God two years ago, today? I think she's the reason I made Mommy go to the hospital last night. She really loved her daughter and Daddy's Daddy. She must have wanted me to come down and make sure they were still happy...what do you think?

Quite a responsibility, raising the son so he can raise the daughter...
I can't wait to watch them grow together.

Her family is going to take awhile getting used to the name, but they're coming around!
As for us...we love it!

Thanks, SAM. The Flyboy is still hovering around 35,000 feet AGL. I'm not sure he'll be back on the ground for awhile!

Thanks so much, Jen...I'll pass your best wishes on to the young'uns.
Maybe one of these days, if you're out this way, you can hold her. She's a little darling.

I would love to hold her. My maternal instincts are getting all stirred up just looking at the pictures. I want a baby love on - but not my own! ;)
Guess I need to tell my brother to get busy and give me another little nephew or niece. hahahaha
Do you mind if I share a pix of my youngest nephew? He's making his 'mean' face. He's such a sweetie pie. Man, I need a baby fix! See what you started??? hahahahaha

Way to go AZflyboy and HiJinx.
Sure hope Jim Robinson is taking note that FR is growing in more ways than just the Freep-a-thon.
