We're home and adjusting to life at Ocean Beach. We had a good but very active evening and Grandma Shirley works her magic to keep everyone quiet and calm and entertained with stories. I hope to be posting more later after breakfast (for both of us) with some details about our first few days together.
Baby Boy Young was born 8:30 this morning at a healthy 7lbs 7oz after a super easy labor of only 9 hours. Everyone is doing great and more detail will be coming but I'm blogging from my phone. (Photos are also from my phone and can be found on the right.)
Countdown... T minus 0 It's a day past the due date. (Boy, that was MEAN, wasn't it?) I had a very quiet day yesterday. I finished some cleaning and some improvements in the kitchen that have been bugging me since we moved in (Larry said it looked like a professional had done it). I wanted
