He's here!

William Edward Gillis
7lbs 0oz, 21 inches long


He finally made it....with a little help. Friday night I went into the hospital to be induced. After many, many hours of grueling labor William (not Bill) was born.
Okay, okay...it only took 2 hours and 3 pushes (I did get an epidural for about 1/2 hour), and there he was. We are so grateful for this addition to our family.

Henry has been sick and coughing a lot, that is the reason for the mask.

Any day now would be nice


Ben says it hasn't come yet because we haven't set up the crib or picked a name. I say it's stubborn. 12 days to go...unless I induce. Thanks for taking the picture Samuel.

I made this in art class. It is made out of clay. Then you fire it in a kiln. Then I put glaze on it. Henry

For my Mother-in-law

Last October when my in-laws came to visit I put my Mother-in-law to work. She planted some 150 bulbs for me. Here they are so far.
Thanks Annette

X-Box

Here's the only x-box we can afford:
Samuel made it at school in the "art center." He even made a remote for the baby (which is still nameless.)
