Bridgette Michele Randall was born this morning, Nov. 24th, 2009 at 5:24am. She is a healthy 5 lbs 10 ozs and 18 3/4" long. Mom (our daughter Briana), Dad (Kevin) and Baby are all doing GREAT! After being up for nearly 30 hours, I took a 4 hour nap with my wife. We're heading back in after dinner for more visiting.

Here is the FB public album... hope this works!

Everyone is doing VERY well but, of course, exhausted! I'm already on the hunt for her first bike, the Yamaha PW50. There are plenty of training wheels on ebay for it! :D

This is truly a Thanksgiving with a lot to be thankful for! I feel really fortunate to be a Grampy at just shy of 45 yrs old when I can see this little girl grow up!
 
Oh what great news Eric !! Congratulations to the new Parents and Grandparents!!:cheer::cheer::cheer: God has blessed you all well this Thanksgiving. I'll keep you all in my prayers this evening!!!

Now get some sleep, won't be much more coming for a while !!!!
 
Oh damn almost forgot, I'll want the honor to order the 1st mod for the PW50 !!!
 
:cheer: CONGRATULATIONS!!! :cheer:


Do they make helmets in his size? I recall you're a fan of ATGATT ;)

Edit: her, I meant her size. Duh. Sorry.
 
Thank you all! :thumbup:

We cannot be any MORE thankful than we are today! She did a great job with the labor but they ended up taking Bridgette via C-section because her heart rate dipped way too low a few times during contractions. Briana was devastated as she fought hard to have an all natural birth for the baby. Once we convinced her that she didn't fail and that it was for both her and the baby's health, she was OK to give in. It helped when the Doc said they would stop the contractions too! ;)

She is finally getting some sleep right now so we'll not be able to go see them again until morning but they are all doing VERY well!

What an AMAZING day!
 
Oh damn almost forgot, I'll want the honor to order the 1st mod for the PW50 !!!

Absolutely Eric! I am going to contact the dealer tomorrow. They stopped making these much like the FZ6 so I have to find an '09 holdover now! Unsure about buying a used one unless it's in really great shape!
 
Thanks for sharing, Eric. I hope you and your family have a Thanksgiving to remember.

45 yr old GRANDFATHER.....wow!

Thanks John!

Yes, 44 now but 45 in January. My daughter is 22 yrs old, same age I was when she was born! ;)

I was born to older parents and all my grand parents died before I ever got to see them. I was determined to be young enough to be a grand parent to a child some day. Of course, we didn't expect one this soon but it only takes that one small lapse in judgment. :eek: :D I am proud of them for sticking this through. She really wanted to wait for another 4 - 5 years.

The two boys have no plans and I think they are even MORE careful now about their "adventures" after this!

Thanks again all!
 
That's really cool Eric.

My daughters name is named Breanna and my son is Kevin. It was kinda wierd reading the names.
 
ha ha ha first bike coming soon already!!!


We will have to get Cadence and Bridgette our dirty riding as soon as they can both walk :)



Congrats again and if you need ANYTHING AT ALL, most of our stuff is only 6 months old and as Cadence grows out if it, Bridgette should be growing into whatever it is.


PS: we have about 3000 baby blankets if you guys need anything like that, just off the top of my head.
 
Thanks again everyone! :D

Rob, she's got a ton of stuff but if something comes up that we think she needs, we will be sure to call on you two! We all appreciate it a GREAT DEAL!

And yes, Cadence and Bridgette will have to go out dirt tracking on the bike. :thumbup: Liking the PW50 for the training wheels option along with the parental governor!

Anthony, that IS quite a coincidence isn't it? I'll take it one more step... the nurse she had last night was also named Bridgette!

This is going to be a WHOLE LOT OF FUN! :rockon:
 
Fantastic news ! congrats Eric :cheer:

I,m just a tad older than you and my oldest is just about to turn 8 ,lol.
I think I left things a little late.

I,m glad every thing went well for your daughter and I,m very happy for you and your lovely co-grand parent :D

Cheers mate.
 
Just went and checked out the pic's mate and you have every reason to be the proudest grandpa on the planet :D... Congrats to all involved and glad they are all doing well , i'll have another cold one for you :thumbup: :iconbeer:n
