Look What I Did Today!


I had a baby! Abraham Barry (Abe), born at 7:24 this morning (1-17), weighing 7 pounds, 7 ounces. Many sevens! He shares a birthday with Betty White and Benjamin Franklin. And he weighed 2 full pounds less than his last two brothers and showed up after just 3 1/2 hours of labor, so we're pretty happy with him so far. Also, he's really cute.


His brothers like him a lot, too.






Shortly after this last picture was taken, I commented that Milo is looking a lot like 1965 Bob Dylan with his haircut these days. He seemed pleased. And why shouldn't he? He looks like Bob Dylan AND he has a brand new baby brother.

    Love the pictures of your gorgeous brood. And yes, Milo is rather Dylan-ish
