Baby Michael!

Aaron and Terri and Lydia and Henry want to welcome our new nephew/cousin baby Michael Paul to the family, and to congratulate his parents, Tamara and Danny. Welcome, congrats!

Lydia and Henry and the fam all stopped by the hospital to see the new addition and his happy, exhausted Mom and Dad - who unfortunately are stuck in a shared, semi-private room. Boo.

Michael was active and awake and sucking on his hands for most of the day, we were told, but for the brief time we were there, he simply snoozed - barely even twitching as he was passed from waiting arms to waiting arms. He felt like a feather.

Lydia was typically shy in the crowd of people, but not so shy that she couldn't push her way through to peer and poke and coo at her doll-sized cousin. Meanwhile Henry, at 17 lbs, looked downright gargantuan next to Michael's 6 lbs 8 oz. Also, he had no idea what was going on - he's only 4 months old.

Here's hoping everyone has a safe and somewhat restful night.
