Just thought I would let everyone know that Melissa gave birth to our Daughter thursday night! Very Happy Very Happy
5 pounds 15 ounces. Kathryn Adel Drake. Mom and baby are doing fine. I knew there was going to be a good reason why I could not make the TN gathering this weekend. Wink As soon as I get to work on Monday I will post a picture for you guys.
Hope everyone had fun this weekend....I lost a lot of sleep. Guess she is just preparing for the next 18 years!

Grandpa actually took time away from the Simca this weekend to see he newest grandchild. Laughing Laughing

Post subject: slant six babys (Sun Feb 09, 2003 3:37 pm) Reply with quote
Congratulations Tom! I know you and Melissa are proud of Kathryn. Wow! Two slant six babys on the same weekend. Dawn and John Cox traveled to Gatlinburg on Friday for the Slant Six Banquet. At 3:00 a.m. on Saturday morning, Dawn woke John up and told him it was time to go to the hospital. After a frantic search for Jim and Faith (the babysitters for Alexis) John and Dawn headed for the Dolly Partain Birthing Unit at the hospital in Sevierville, Tennessee. They had a baby boy, I don't know the correct spelling, but his name is Elliot James Cox. He weighed 6 pounds. He was born Saturday while we were having our banquet. Two babies at almost exactly 6 pounds each. What can we say. We will discuss the meeting later. Thanks Ron Parker. Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

Thanks everyone. She had to spend the last two days in the hospital under the "bili-lamp". Nothing to serious just needed a little attention. They should come home today so back to the no sleep for a while! Laughing
