Can you tell I'm a proud grandma? I've added a new picture. He's adorable.

Greetings to all!I put an exclamation point to begin with, because this is indeed an exciting day. At 11:01 April 28, 2009, I became a grandma to a darling baby boy. We are glad that he is here safe and sound. He weighed 9lbs.7oz. and was 21inches long. They are going to name him Eian Kirk Farr.(Or it could be Ian)I was too excited to ask. The only one we were missing was our heavenly dad and husband. We had a few tears. We're sure he was there and maybe that's why it took a few days longer, because he was saying goodbye. He at least had the chance to be the first one to see him. Something he would really love.
We are praying for all the other babies and young and older children in the family every day. Mother and I take quite a few names to the temple each time we go.
I also finished my lymphatic class last night. I am now known as a Lymphatic Practitioner. I have a lot to learn. Our lymphatic system is such an amazing part of us. I have really learned to love our Savior more and honor his works because of this amazing body He created for us and the incredible opportunity we have to use it reverently and be and instrument in His hands for good and peace for His children here on the earth.
Well I promised Tara I'd find a sign announcing this heavenly gift, so I'd better sign off. Love you all and I'll post pictures when Janell shows me how.
It's now about 7:00 p.m. and I'm back from seeing the cutest baby on earth. If the others are as cute as he is, we're going to have a cute bunch of 2009 kids.

Greetings bloggetts and fellow bloggers!
I was commissioned on my birthday to have a blog by the end of the day, but somehow I just didn't make it. So, to redeem myself, here goes. Wow! that was some writing. I hope all of you English majors and journalist don't read this too closely.
First, I want to say that I am enjoying the blogs very much!!!!!!!!! It's like having you here with us and having a good visit. There's quite a variety: spiritual, romance, comedy, truth with a little delight added and much more. Thank you Marian. I love Jane Eyre and now want to own a copy for myself. As the children say, "Maybe I'll buy it with my birthday money."
This year has been a great journey and a tremendous learning experience. I'm so glad that our elder brother, Jesus Christ was willing to be born and give His life for us. He has carried my burdens so many times that I can't even begin to count them or thank Him enough. I love the scripture that says:" Oh that I were and angel and could have the wish of my heart." I would shout it from the rooftops that He lives and loves us all, no matter what our circumstances are, what we look like or if we make mistakes. Who could ask for more.
Grandma & I have been trying to attend the temple a little more often. Our prophet sure admonished us to do so. We are not the best, but we are trying. I have to take care of all of those sweet babies that are going to join us and their mothers, so you get put on the prayer roles often. I'm also watching out for our New Yorkers, missionaries to be, and every family in general. I'm sure our families up above are keeping busy just watching out for us. If you have to have patience for something to be answered, it's probably because George is visiting with them and just needs one more hug or to give someone a little more spiritual advice.
Speaking of advice. I have been taking a health class on lymphology. I've loved it. Our lymphs are what help our cells and blood to function properly and keep us healthy. Here is some great news for those of you whose tummies don't always feel right in the morning, because of little junior or juniorette. On the left foot, on the bottom, just below the cushioned pad part of your feet is the meridian for the stomach. Use two fingers or both thumbs and gently massage accross the foot in that area in and oval for about three minutes. This should help with the nausea. You can do it as often as you need too. It also helps digestion. Dehydration can also cause nausea, because even though you are sleeping, the baby is still using water. Keep well hydrated.
Well, there's your health for the day. I love you all and thank you so much for all your prayers in my behalf and all you've done for grandma. HAPPPY EASTER!
