Welcome Li'l brotha!

I figured since I'm now a full time milker I should probably update the ol' blog. I've got 12 weeks of devoted time and only going back to work once a week (most likely) will be helpful in me reaching my blogging goals. Who knows- maybe I'll even start checking in on my friend's blogs again. I blame facebook for my neglect, but I promise to do better.

So let me turn over a new leaf with the telling of the birth story of one lil' Mushroom (Dave's choice of name for his new baby brother). As many of you know after many long hours of labor Dave finally emerged through a small incision made in my belly. As the due date of the second child grew nearer, the doc began expecting another large boy- so we decided just to go ahead and schedule another C-section on the little fella's actual due date. It is very weird to go to the hospital just knowing you are going to get your baby out in, oh, 20 minutes or so.

Simultaneously weird is the idea that they are going to take the child out of your body while you are awake, like some sort of med school experiment gone awry.

And so little brother was born, 9lbs 1oz- amazingly the exact same weight as his big brother (though his brother had a half inch on him). He is a sweet little baby with a nice healthy cry. So far his hobbies include suckling, pooping and peeing whenever his little hiney feels the free air, and of course sleeping. I think he's going to make us famous and filthy rich someday.
