Newest addition to Dinny's Handi family
« on: September 10, 2009, 05:44:05 PM »
Hello everyone,

She's here and very healthy. My wife is also doing very well. We hope to be able to take her home tomorrow.

stats:  7lb 4oz, 19 1/2" and born today at 12:40pm
 
A special thanks to all those that kept us in their thoughts and prayers. It's been a long journey, but I am glad it worked-out that I could come home for the birth.


Thanks, Dinny

Thanks everyone, we are still very excited and not too sure it has fully sunk-in for us. Everything is all so new to all of us right now. We'll get it figured out soon enough. ;)
