Welcome to the family, Robert Matthew!

Arriving August 10th, Tim and Jess'  little guy weighed in at 8 lbs. 14 oz, and 20 in.

Doesn’t Grandpa look pleased??

He created some confusion with several false “Today I am coming!!” alarms and then changing his mind.

It seemed he liked to pick Sundays to pull that trick on.  Then wait another week and try again that next Sunday.

Finally, he picked a Saturday.  Tim and Jess were hesitant to call the midwife until they were sure.

Really, truly sure.

As you may have guessed, the midwife didn’t quite make it in time.  Tim caught his little son, then called the midwife, “Where are you?”    “Pulling into your driveway,” she answered, and Tim let her take over from there.

Audrey hasn’t yet figured out this squirmy little “toy doll”.

But once she patiently let him suck her banana-flavored finger until he fell asleep.

He opened his eyes for his Aunt Abby.  Beautiful eyes.

We are so glad you are now a part of our family, little Robbie. 

Watch out, you’re gonna be Really Loved!!

(Yes, that is an engagement ring you see on Abby’s finger.

Abby is engaged and planning her wedding for this fall.)
