  2. Wow! He is here, I was at the hospital for a birth that morning at 5:14 am and thought about how you would be there within a couple hours. What a great looking little man, or I should say big man. Congrats to the whole family!

  7. Congrats you guys! He reminds me of Jack...born looking like a 2 month old. That big sister is pretty cute! We have one of those first family pictures from the hospital of the older sibling crying and we are all smiles - priceless. Hope all is going well for you, and those boys can eat, can't they?!?
