On March 5, 2008, after many hours of labor and more than a few tense moments where we thought a C-section may be needed, my beautiful daughter was brought into this world. We named her Emma Jane. She was 7 lbs. 14 oz. and 21.5 inches long at birth. Since then she's nearly doubled her weight and lengthened herself by about 3 inches. Did I mention that she's beautiful?
I'm not going to post pictures of her... oh who am I kidding? I can't help it. I've been sending pictures of her to every person with an email account that I've come across since 1998, when I got the AOL and started internetting it up. I'm smitten with her and she pretty much ignores me unless I stick my tongue out at her, in which case she smiles big and sticks hers out too. We've been bonding.
Here she is.
One of the many cool things about having a baby: when I'm holding her I am totally allowed to fart... out loud even.
In other news, we are still in the STL area, but have moved away from our previous house. Thanks (many, many thanks) to our landlord's negligent handling of a completely broken sewer line, we were able to break the lease and move into a much (much, much, much, etc.) nicer place. We got nearly double the square footage (and a basement! and a garage!) for $100 more per month.
As for work, it still happens pretty regularly. I'm splitting time between 2 projects and working on getting another one set up down in DFW. If at all possible, we would really like to move back home and be near my family. The problem is that jobs in my industry just don't exist there. At least not in the immediate vicinity of my oil-industry-soaked hometown.
As for the wife, she's pretty much bounced back from the whole pregnancy thing. She is looking good and doing a fine job of putting up with me. (hi, baby). She's also doing a wonderful job for a first-time mom.
All-in-all life is great. Things are quite different than when I started this blog. And that's absolutely fine with me.
