It's been so long since I wrote last - and no doubt you've forgotten all about me! But in my defense, some very big things have been happening around here lately. And most importantly...

Byron is finally here!
Byron Caleb was born at home on the 21st of March, at 9:42 in the morning. The labor was excruciating, let me tell you (!!!!!) - but I'll spare you the details. :-)
The good news is that our little boy is healthy and strong and growing at a ferocious rate - he's grown 1/2 a lb a week since birth (destined to reach his 6'4" daddy, I'm sure). We are so happy and thankful to finally have him here with us, and I'm doubly thankful for my quick recovery - one certainly needs their strength when caring for 2 children under 3. Especially when they almost never sleep when you want them to!
