ANOTHER GRAND-CHILD! This was to be a surprise as I was going to announce it this week, but with all the other things on I didn't get around to it. This baby wasn't supposed to be due till the end of November, first week of December, but obviously he had other plans!
I was rung about an hour ago by our son letting us know that they have had another little boy - no name as yet as they have a couple of possibilities.
He was 7lb 11oz. As I am babysitting Dana's children tomorrow we will hopefully get to see him on Sunday. Naomi and baby are both well. Love Chris

Just found out his name is Chase Benson Pennifold! Cooper is cuddling his baby brother in this recent picture. Love Chris

Congratulation on another God Sent grandchild. He looks so healthy and strong. Chase is better of having his birthday in November. My husband was born on Christmas Day and I was born 13th and neither of us liked having a birthday in December.

I agree with you there Agatha. Cooper was born on the 4th November, so both boys have their birthdays now in November. Love Chris

Hi Kerry, yes, I am serious! (Actually I always think of that line from Flying High - "Surely you can't be serious" and Peter Graves answers - "Yes, I am serious and don't call me Shirley!!!". Ha ha ha, loved that movie.
As I said I was going to keep it till this week, but nature had other thoughts! He is a little chubba! Love Chris
