The Kitchen Table

We have a new baby boy.

4 years ago

I have 16 nieces and nephews, this little guy is the 11th grand nephew. Theodore James arrived early this morning. He has been named by his brothers Logan and Henry. Mom is doing great. More to come this year. It's going to be a year of boys for us. Another due in February followed by another in early April.

So exciting to have babies in the family. Fun for all, especially for those of us who can play with them, and then give them back! Congratulations.

Oh, congratulations. New babies such a blessing, no matter how many there already are.

We're expecting a great- nephew on 2-28 and getting excited. It will be their first. First boy on her side of the family in a couple of generations, and first baby. Her OB has said though with ultrasound, he may be developed a week or more ahead of the first due date guesstimate.

The dividing lines most often go: toy 6-9 lbs; tiny toy 4-6 lbs; teacup under 4 lbs. If she's registered, you can get a geneology, which will give you a bit of a guide to her heritage in size. No promises, though. Nature persists in selecting some genes at random. I got Lalee when she was 3 weeks old, because the owner/breeder was going to euthanize her. Even at that tender age, being twice the size of her littermates, it was obvious her size was a 12-generation throw-back. Those previous generations were all teacups, weighing an average of 3 pounds, except for a 5lb g-g-g-etc-greatgrandsire. She was the most intelligent, and best-natured dog I've ever had.

Thank you! I went to your photobucket website, and you have some beautiful flowers including the brugs and hibiscus. I posted a note on one of the white hibiscus as follows: "This is beautiful. What variety is it? Have you seen the white Hawaiian Hibiscus arnottianus which is allegedly the only hibiscus to be slightly fragrant? They are also beautiful." My daughter lives on Oahu, and she and I went to one of the botanical gardens, and I saw one and fell in love immediately. Next time I head out that way, I'm bringing one back. Hibiscus arnottianus

Congratulations Donna! It is very hard to believe they can even hold their heads up isn't it? So naked compared to Blues too. It is not uncommon to have an egg or two not hatch with Dees. Mine are about ready to fledge if the Blues will leave them alone. They have been harassing them relentlessly for two days. They can't get in the box but will not leave them alone. I wish they'd just take care of their own babies. They fledged a week ago. Oh well Continued success Cathy

Congrats! We were finished with kids after our 2 girls, but likewise the Lord blessed us with an unexpected son too :-) And he has been a blessing indeed, had I known what it would be like then we wouldn't have been so quick to stop at 2! My suggestion would be to get a little splash pool to set up next to the big pool and when he's old enough start him on swim lessons. Before you know it you won't need the splash pool anymore. Logan is 5 and can't touch unless he is standing right at the shallow edge of the pool, but he has been taking lessons for 3 years and is incredibly comfortable in the water. He doesn't need to touch bottom, he just swims all over the place.

We have a new baby in our family as well! A boy born in the very early hours of Boxing Day (just missed being a Christmas baby) named Lachlan Robert (Robert after his grandpa, who is no longer with us)....a robust Scottish name!!

A first for the proud M&D and the most recent in a string of 11 great nieces and nephews. My own stepdaughter has expressed no interest in having any of her own. She and her SO would rather have animals in their lives. And that's fine with me.

Wonderful! So..."Teddy" or "Jimmy" or "TJ"?

And, gardengal -- Wow, Lachlan Robert, can't get more Scots than that! Hope the new mom and dad are ready as the Great Adventure That Never Ends is just beginning.

Judy Good, we had one of those surprises years ago. Brother and his wife were due, she went into labor at home and delivered a beautiful little girl. A few minutes later she had to push and out came another little girl. Identical twin girls. My sister in law hadn't had a ultra sound. It was her third and she didn't feel the need.

So many new babies. Love the names. I like the nickname Theo for Theodore. I have a Theo across the street from me and a Dorothy next door. No Lachlans yet but I like that name.
