It's a girl! It's a girl!

Gina and David presented the world with a beautiful baby girl - Kyla Watt - at 1:38p PST February 6. She was born at 6.9# and 19-1/2". Gina went through labor and birth naturally and both mother and daughter are doing very well. Gina's so tiny, and where she put that beautiful little thing with those fat little legs I'll never know! The new family is ecstatically happy and thrilled, as are the first-time new Pa and Grammy. We would have been thrilled with either a healthy boy or girl, but David seems to have broken the boy mold and given us a girl!

Kyla's Chinese middle name will be determined before they leave the hospital, so I'll post her full name and another photo of our new granddaughter very soon.

Every new plateau in life is absolutely incredible! I'm so emotionally charged you would have "thunk" that I gave birth - must be the feelings of all new grandparents - how proud and happy we are!
