April 23rd at 7:00 am, our 10th grandchild came into the world. We were so happy to get the phonecall from Erik that all had gone well and he and Cristin had enjoyed a beautiful homebirth of their 2nd son, Charles John Lassen. Charlie, as they plan to call him, weighed 8 lbs 3oz and measured 21 1/2 inches. He has lots of dark hair and reminds of our own babies with his round face and upturned nose.


John and I and Mette and Hans drove out to Tehachapi last evening and spent a couple hours with them before we had to leave to drive home. We enjoyed bringing Luke home with us for a few days so mommy Cristin can gets some rest.

Check out Cristins' blog where Erik has added more pictures and a great tribute to his wonderful wife. http://www.talesofanordinaryhousewife.blogspot.com/
