Sweet justice

If only it were medically possible to make that the punishment for a man anytime he utters the words "It must be THAT time of the month" or "Is dinner ready yet?" or "You look fine" or "Oh, sweetie, it's not THAT bad" or "I was going to do the dishes but then I started playing ProSkater" or the time he forgets your name when introducing you to an ex.....

If only it were possible....

Owen Michael

I met my newest nephew on Wednesday. He looks just like his sister, Olivia. He has black hair (and for this family of hair-challenged newborns), quite a bit. He has long toes and fingers. I didn't get to see much of him (there were 5 other kids there sucking every last ounce of my energy). But I did get to take one close-up look and he is just darling. There is something about little tiny newborn babies. Though my daughter is just closing in on 12 weeks, Owen totally makes me want another one. It's funny, Adelaide is only just 12 weeks old and yet next to Owen she looked like a big chubba-chubs. She looked so huge compared to him and yet she was that size just a short time ago. Man.. How time does fly and how fast little ones grow.

Anyway.. Another congrats to my brother and sister-in-law (who seriously deserves some sort of recognition for going through it 4 times). Owen is beautiful (and the name rocks big time!).

Pictures ARE worth a thousand words..

To all who have asked several times to get pictures of the kids... We are finally answering. Check them out (often) at homepage.mac.com/searlesbunch. You can see both London and Adelaide and get your fill.

Welcome to the family

My sister-in-law delivered a boy at 12:50 am this morning. Owen Michael, 8 lbs 7 oz, 20 1/4 inches. I guess he technically delivered himself. She pushed when she wasn't supposed to, and in 2 pushes, he was out, on the bed, water in tact (Owen eventually broke it with his arm). The nurses scurried to do something, while my brother freaked out and yelled "Somebody help him!". The doctor showed up 10 minutes later (there's gotta be some sort of discount for that). Mom and baby are doing just fine. I cannot wait to meet him on Wednesday!

Owen makes grandchild # 8, great grandchild # 23.

Congratulations Sean & Heather (and the 3 that came before him - Isaac, Lily and Olivia).

And Owen, Welcome to this crazy family.

Babies babies everywhere...

My sister-in-law is in the hospital right now getting ready to have her baby. How exciting! She should have it by tomorrow night (for her sake I hope sooner!). We don't know what "it" is.. So I cannot wait to hear if we have a new niece or nephew.. A little Audrey or Owen. This is my brother and sister-in-law's 4th child. God bless 'em. The kids and I are traveling down on Wednesday to meet the little one (and to visit the rest).

I'll update as soon as things happen.
