    Whew! I got the chills. Welcome, Baby J!! (We call our little man Dr. J, but hope that he won’t have such a reputation with the ladies as Julius Irving.)

    Thank you all. Will be uncharacteristically terse. We got home this afternoon and I had to add this visual to the update. More later, including a guest post from the KIABIL, aka Know-It-All-Brother-In-Law.

    Thanks again so much, konagod, llyn52, Trista, Ayelet, Whitney, Momai, Artsweet, Miarno, Katie, Dana, and LD!

    What a delightful way to end the week! Quite a hefty dude too! I was only 7 lbs 6 oz. and I ended up being a world of trouble!

  14. 14 llyn52

    congratulations on safe arrival! I hope he sleeps well for all of you. Well done birth mother – they dont call it labour for nothing!

    Thank you thank you the KIABIL, waiting, Lizzy, Marypierce13, Blue Ox, and jon (& Rosie & Zoe & Fergus). My dilemma while kid #1 is spirited away by my sister: Clean yesterday’s dishes & generally tidy up? Nab some sleep, and find therein some composure? Or be a wacky fool and upload some more baby pictures, leaving the house a mess and my nerves even more shorn of that protective sheathing that comes in so handy in days like these? Hmmmmm….

    Welcome, little one. You’re just beautiful.

  22. 22 Liza

    Oh! Congratulations! He’s adorable! Welcome to the world, baby brother!

    BTW, that’s exactly the same size Noah was when he was born. Big babies are wonderful.

    I hope you are getting a few smidgens of sleep and am so so so happy you posted a picture of this beautiful boy.

  23. 23 m2inVT

    Absolutely beautiful! Congratulations to you all.

    Got cut short on the phoner with Junie Bozzy as the little guy apparently needed some boob. Anyway, I love you all so much and we Garton people congratulate you immensely on your new human. And generally, greetings from Minnesota.

    Yay! and Super Yay! Give that kid a big smooch for me please.
