I've got a 14 yr old boy, and I can highly recommend the experience. The best advice I can give you, for later on, is listen to your kids. They do have things to say and you are not always going to be right.

Best wishes

Hey guys, I'm home after a long day at the hospital! The wife delivered and here are the numbers...

Born on June 16, 2010 at 09:32am

His Weight: 8lbs 12 ounces (at 10 days EARLY)
His Length: 19 Inches
His Head: 14.25 Inches

His Name: Jacob

His older sister, who's holding him in this picture, was born on April 9, 2006

She was born at 07:38am

Her Weight: 8lbs 8 ounces (at 11 days EARLY)
Her Length: 21 Inches
Her Head: 14.25 Inches

Her Name: Isabella-Jolene

So both of them were roughly the same size and weight.

Anybody know how to resize the images a little bit? They are so HUGE and I took the pics with my small Apple iphone!

PS. Thanks for all the kind words and prayers. Thank you!

I agree on that Raymond. Most parents try to dominate their teenagers (Like my mother) when they should befriend them like my Dad did with me.

Congrats on your kids Thorn! Beautiful looking children! You should be proud!

Congrats.

You could try some free online image resizers to make the pictures smaller.
