Default Our first grandbaby arrived yesterday!

Hi all,

Our first grandbaby presented herself at precisely 1:03 pm yesterday, Tullia Louise Turman, weighing 6 lbs. 6 oz, 20 inches long, strawberry hair, with a twinkle in her eye. She is adorable. (guess I'm just a tad bias!) I'm so glad she arrived before my surgery, so I got to be there for the whole thing.

Just wanted to share our joy,

Cindylou
