Vance Michael is born

My sister and her husband welcomed their first child into the world early this morning.

He was born at 1:01 a.m. weighing in at 7 pounds, 5 ounces and 21 inches long. He’s got dark wavy hair with some reddish brown highlights — the perfect mix of Angie and Vinny’s coloring.

Mother, baby and dad are doing well and resting in the Vermont hospital.

Congratulations to Vinny and Angie! We were rooting for you all the way.

(I think my facts are straight and we were told an update would be posted on their blog later today.)

Now the Codella cousin clan is composed of five boys and one girl — yes, Eliana’s the lone cutie pie in the whole bunch.

My folks have a pretty good return on their investment: three kids, and now six grandkids all within six years (the same amount of time, incidentally, in which they had their three kids).
