“Little Tony” Ain’t so Little
September 27th, 2009
As mentioned in an earlier post, I was arranging for a trip back east to visit family. As it happens it was to welcome my new grandson, Chase Anthony, aka “Little Tony” of an unknown Irish-Italian organization, who arrived in this country at 2205 on 26 Sep 2009. He was 21 inches tall and weighed in at an astonishing 10 lbs 13.6 oz! Mom, Dad, and bouncing baby boy are doing well! Pictures to back up this claim to follow later today…
Update: As promised, here are the pictures of La Familia (click the image to see it full size):The new kid is extraordinarily tough, he broke a few ribs making his way into this world. Resilient little wise guy. His grandfather will be incommunicado for a short time… taking care of business…

Wow! 10#-13+oz. Wonder what the record is?
Congratulations Grandpa Steven. This post is probably more important than all the others you have done and you let your daughter (in law?) do all the work.

Wow thats big my kid was 10lbs 15oz,congrats on another member to the family.
another weird thing it looks like he was born on the 26th of September and my son was born on the 27th. Crazy
@tom Vail
Yup, definitely the most important! It’s my daughter Jasmine and my son-in-law Todd. Poor girl was definitely tuckered out! Kind of fun, this whole grandparent thing ;D Thanks Tom.
