Baby Lydia Carol Clay has finally arrived!

After a couple of long days in the hospital baby Lydia Carol Clay arrived to greet her parents and older sister Victoria.  8 lbs. 1 oz. and 20 inches long.
The first family photo with Lydia.


 Granddymom Carol flew in to help take care of Victoria and mom and baby when they got home.

Lydia is sweet, calm and cuddly.  Her long dark hair was a surprise to her parents......

 ...even though Victoria had dark hair when she was born. 
 So we probably have another blonde in the future. 

Grandma and Grandpa Clay arrived later in the day to admire little Lydia.  She is our 15th grandchild! 


Already sucking her thumb.
She was totally bright eyed when we got to the hospital and aware of thing going on around her.

Home on Tuesday afternoon so Mom and Baby could finally get some rest.  
Great Grandma Betty was thrilled to see our latest Clay Grandbaby.

Four Generations.  Great Grandma Betty Bennett, Grandma Kathy Clay, Dad David and Lydia Clay.

Betty and Carol saying goodbye.  My mom leaves her cottage to go home to Pennsylvania this weekend.
Carol goes home next week.  I will miss them both!!!
