Tonight at 5:32, Dennis' brand new cousin Jeffrey Austin was born. At birth he weighed 8 lbs. 9 oz. and was 21" long. Laine and Emily have a brand new baby brother. Lee and Larissa have the son they are thrilled about. Mom and baby are doing just fine. I hope we'll get to meet little Jeffrey very very soon.
The arrival of a new baby has me feeling nostalgic about my first days with Dennis almost two years ago. Looking at him tonight I wonder where my little baby went. Now I spend my time with this walking, talking little person with real ideas and a great sense of humor. Babies are sweet and exhausting. Toddlers are probably just as much work as newborns (but you get to sleep, at least, with older babies!).
In case you're wondering (and I know all of you are), there are no plans for a sibling for Dennis in the near future. We are beyond thrilled just being his parents. So all of you who know how old I am and wonder if my biological alarm is going off... It isn't. I am fulfilled, wonderfully so. God bless Larissa for having THREE of them!! She is an incredible mom of some extremely beautiful children.
