A new addition

My profile picture is me and my second child, my daughter Ceci. It is about 2 years old or so (she's almost 4). But yesterday, at 12:05 pm EST, a new member of the Fred family made his arrival, Declan, @ 6 pounds, 6 ounces and 19 inches long. A very small guy.

Born at home (a planned homebirth), the baby came through just fine. My son (10 years old) and Ceci both got to watch the birth, a memory which will last their entire lives. And watching the wonder on their faces will last my entire life as well.

It was a good day to be born.
