I knew that we would be heading to the hospital this morning so after eating breakfast, doing the dishes and reading the paper I went outside and mowed the front lawn. As I was finishing up the mailman pulled up so I got the mail brought it with me to the back yard. As I was putting the little Brill mower away I notice a nut and bolt from my big
After that I went into the house and cleaned up, opened the mail and poured a fresh cup of coffee and had a few Fig Newton’s while I read the mail. Kathleen was just having breakfast so I asked her about when she thought she would be going to the hospital. She said soon so I changed my clothes and got ready to go. We got to the hospital a little before
Luckily I saw them wheeling her down the hall way so Kathleen rushed out to wish her well. This was about 1220 and a little while later someone came into the waiting room and said something about someone just delivering an eleven pound baby, both Kathleen and I knew that it must have been Andrea so she went to the desk but they would not tell her anything.
A short time later John came out with Christian and he is really a big boy already! John said that everything went well and that Andrea was doing well. After a little while longer Andrea came back to her room so we went in to see her for a while.
We left around 1430 so that Andrea, John and Christian could get some rest. Christian had nurse for over an hour and the nurse was please with that.
When we got home I changed my clothes and made myself some lunch and then went out side for a while. Kathleen came out to join me, but I got tired of sitting so I picked some strawberries, blueberries, raspberries and even a few apples. The back yard has so much fresh fruit in it right now that I could probably eat every meal out there.
Here are a couple of pictures of the newest member of our family:
