He is just so beautiful (and familiar!)....and you guys look pretty good too. What a grat website as I have been very anxious for news. I ask Mom whenever I am there -any news from 'THE GRAMMA'? The grammas look and might be acting cool but I know how they really feel-made my knees weak. Your journey sounds familiar too-Philip was face down and they used forceps - nasty. Take care, listen to ALL the advice ...then use what you want! Love to all, Auntie Marion Oh my goodness!!! He is just so beautiful (and familiar!)....and you guys look pretty good too.

Things are continuing to go well. Nathan's even sleeping a bit longer through the nights. We are definitely blessed. @Shaun: You'll love this... I sometimes tell Nathan about Deep Space Nine during diaper changes, as a way to keep my calm and focus on something other than his crying. Maybe we need a diaper warmer.

We went through many of the same dramas with the twins, Elijah's birth was traumatic, he was jaundiced and was a terrible breast feeder. Its terrible to want something so badly that you have very little control over. Sometimes we are merely spectators in our own lives. Your post made me cry for so many reasons. Our hearts are happy that you have your most precious gift home safely with you now. Keep us updated, its these moments in life that we feel furthest away, keep us close trough technology if you can remember.

And I suppose I'll see him soon enough, if I actually get off my ass and do something more productive than make coffee and toast waffles. Just wondering if I should start educating him about the French now, or later... Oh, and I hereby make myself available to teach him how to throw a ball, cause I've seen James throw a football...yeah...:) Glad to hear everything worked out well.

I mean if he's going to know the difference between Klingons and Jem'Hadar then he better get started. Glad to see things are going well with you guys. cannot wait to see Nathan soon!
