Poor Nursery Leaders

I'm always scared to ask how Gideon behaved in nursery. For the past two weeks when I've asked, the response has been, "Well, nobody cried." That's the nice way of saying, "Your child is a terror." Apparently Gideon believes that all of the other children are excellent targets for practicing his tackling skills.

Cartoon Pregnant Woman and Gideon's Clone

I allowed Peter to take a picture of my cartoonish pregnant belly on Monday night. I gained a grand total of 42 pounds. Silas was born today at 2:15 pm, weighing 7 lbs. 1 oz. and measuring 20 in. He looks a lot like Gideon did when Gideon was born.
