The new, the old and disposing of the past.
What a whirlwind few weeks its been! The New Charlie - 4 1/2 hours old I have a new grandson! Charlie James was born by caesarean on 21 June 2013 at 11.54am weighing 8 pounds 12 ounces. A little brother for Joseph. He was due on the 15th June and so I flew down to Christchurch on the 13th. We knew that if he was overdue, my daughter Jessica wouldn't be kept too long before a decision was made whether or not to have a caesarean especially after the birth of their first son Joseph, amid the tumultuous days after the Christchurch earthquake. However, there was a snowstorm forecast for the same time his caesarean was scheduled that was meant to be the worst since the 1992 Canterbury snowstorms...luckily just days of wind and torrential rain with a smattering of snow actually occurred in Christchurch. I've told Jess that she can't have another baby or a tornado might occur LOL! Seems her children...
