A new baby is always a wonderful occasion. Such a nice change from all the grunge and unhappiness in the world.

Congratulations, Devyn-Leann. You are doing a wonderful job. Three boys to take care of. Well, two boys and their father. Enough to keep 3 women busy.

Congrats, DL! After I saw you a couple weeks ago in the grocery store, I've been dying to know when you had your baby! Hope everyone is doing well!

Thanks all! He is such a calm and content baby. He stays awake for a few hours at a time and looks at everything. He barely cries! I wasn't due until the end of March but he decided to come last Friday the 13th! Thankfully I happened to be in El Dorado at the time for a doctor's appointment.

I am now surrounded by testosterone! Even my dogs are boys! But I wouldn't change it for anything, I love taking care of each of them - and Billy is just like a kid too!!
