Grandbaby #6 arrived almost three weeks ago. Despite being induced at the 37 week mark, he's the biggest one yet! 8 pounds, 6 ounces and 21 1/4" long! Which is partly why the doctor decided to induce three week early.
Unlike my other grandkids, it's taken me a bit to figure out what his blog name is going to be. His siblings were easy, as they were both born during deer hunting season, so naturally they got deer-related names. He was due in early April, and we knew he was going to most likely come via induction before Easter, and I really couldn't find a Spring-ish name that felt right. And then it hit me: He's the sixth!
So, I introduce to you, Sixlet! Anybody remember the Sixlet candies? I loved those when I was little. He's small (ok, not compared to the other newborns, but compared to the size they all are currently), and he's sweet, and he's my sixth grandbaby.
