Super Grandma!
We are home from the hospital now (as of Sunday afternoon), and we are already realizing the blessing it is to have Dianne around. People keep telling you how tired you'll be, and how things change, but trust me when I say you can't possibly understand it until it's here. Dianne will be here all this week, which is going to help both of us immensely.
As for young David, he's doing ok. He's still getting used to feeding. Everything is still so new, and we've been told (by thousands of people) that it takes time. Last night, he slept for 3.5 hours straight (which means Mom and Grandma also slept), which was very nice. And for those of you wondering where Daddy was, he was quarantined off by mom to the bedroom, with the AC on as loud as possible, so he could sleep and thus be helpful during the day time. It was the first time I've slept anything worth mentioning for a few days, and it was wonderful.
And now, some more pictures. These are from when we were in the hospital. Alan and Dianne were up that morning (they left Nassau at like 2:30am when we said we were going to the hospital). Patrick and Kassie were able to come up late Friday night and be around all of Saturday, which was just awesome. Enjoy the pictures!

The Web-Stats of David
The Statistics of David
Born: August 18th, 2006
Current Age: 2 Years!!!
Current Stats: Blue eyes, light brown hair. 28 lbs.
Clothes Size: 2T/3T. Wearing Pampers Size 5 (not Cruisers).
Newest Word: "Zoinks." Daddy had some fun teaching that to him.
Newest Phrase: "Go outside yes." The "go outside" is him asking 'can I go outside,' as we have taught him to say. The "yes" is our answer, which he still repeats back to us, no matter what we do. He's also starting to get used to the fact that "no" is a possible answer, but he typically doesn't care.
Latest Accomplishment: He can turn on our lamp by the switch near the light bulb.
Currently... napping. Hence my time to update the site.

shouldn't there be some pictures of me holding David on there somewhere?
Don't worry, I'm pacing myself. You and Kassie are the next post!
:)
Looks like you two have done an excellent job - congratulations!!
We've looked over all the pictures, and we're pretty sure David James looks EXACTLY like his father at that age, except for the hair (COLOR - we mean hair COLOR!!!) Of course, in terms of sheer numbers of people on each side, we know there isn't a chance we'd win a vote on that one!!
We're looking forward to getting up there soon and getting our own mugs in some David James pictures. Not sure exactly when, but for sure it will be SOON!! We miss you guys!
from: the very proud Second String Grandparents.
P.S. Super Grandma, please give David James lots of extra hugs and kisses from SecondStringGrandma!!
Grandma and Grandpa look so happy!! You have a long list of people here that are itching to hold that baby!! Me being one of them :-)
He has your toes, I know that much!
Darn all of you people who don't leave your names!!!
Thanks for the post, Dad and Mom. And thanks for the baby pictures...that will be a great future post.
David can't wait to meet all of you! Boy its a good thing we don't live in the middle of nowhere, or visiting him would be REALLY hard. Yeah.
you can change where you live :-)
Zing. Yeah, you BETTER remain anonymous.
Um.. Middle of Nowhere? Actually, I'd say it's more the far side of nowhere - at least from here.
