Interesting day yesterday

I got laid off from Boeing after almost five years and I got this:

Grandchild number seven. Aubrey Ann was born to Christopher and Alishia at 1:39 PM 3/30/2009 at a weight of 8Lbs 10 Oz and 21" in length. I guess I have some time to work on Oh Joy now eh?

With Grandma:



Look at all that hair!



Proud new Mama:

Congrats. I got laid off when i was in my early 20s and that is when i learned to sail. Took the summer off and really enjoyed it. Maybe this will be your summer to enjoy the new grandchild and learn to sail (just kidding)

Congrats Charlie... obviously I don't have to tell you about the joys of being a grandparent! Enjoy another one (and your free time if you can!)

Charlie,

I'm sorry to hear about your lay-off, man. But, you have one beautiful family there, dude. That beautiful baby girl sure offsets the downside.

Hang in there. Let me know if I can do anything.

Smack

Congrats Charlie.......

Hope the unemployment doesn't stuff up your plans for Joy, but you will have more time for her......at least when you are not baby sitting....
