It's a boy

I've been waiting all day to see if this was it or another false alarm, but, the baby is here. Lissa is finally a big sister. I picked her up from school and gave her the news and she was so happy. My mother got the call so of course all the info details are farked up. All I know is he's over 7 pounds and healthy. And Lissa's mom is doing fine too. I asked my mom what his name is and she said "Who knows?" And I was like, wtf, you'd ask right? Duhh. Last I heard they'd settled on Gabriel. But, we'll see. Anyhow, I'm glad it's over and I can't wait until things get back to normal. And I want to see Lis holding the baby and get a pic to put on here. Awwww.

Congrats to you and lissa! Gabriel is a beautiful name, one I would have chosen if i had had another boy.
Don't you hate having to blackmail grandchildren to do what they know they're supposed to do? Hate to argue with them. Just do it so we can have fun!

brush her teeth ? She's spunky ! Kiki :)
