  1. Congratulations Vicki AND John. Is that red hair? He looks tired. How about you? It is so refreshing to see a picture of a newborn without the Saint Luke's Blue Background ALL children over here have. Anyway, hope all are well and have fun with the late night feedings and all those diapers.

  9. Thanks everyone for your kind wishes. Yes, Steve, that is red hair and we're not discussing it. Apparently there is a "ginger gene" which runs in John's family, and the first thing John said when he was born was "Oh God, he's got red hair!". I had him at 6 on Sunday morning and I was home in time for supper. Georgia is both enamored and terrified of her little brother ("Mum, he's crying!"), and we haven't slept in 2 days. Life is good!

  12. Vicki, congratulations to you and your family! He is beautiful! I'm sure Georgia will soon be excited and not so much afraid of having a baby brother. I hope you soon get some sleep and recover quickly!

  14. He is just perfect. Can't they just stay like that (peaceful and sleeping) until they are like 20?
    I still can't believe you blogged so quickly after childbirth- you go girl.

  15. Kim - I thought that kicked in at age 40????? I would love to sleep (in peace - no one bothering me). Does that get me out of doing housework as well????

  22. Vicki, way to go! I changed my mind about the polish immigrant and the farm hand picture being published in the paper! I believe CJ and yourself belong there. I give it to you after all a two day after birth blog. Now that is either a sickness? Drugs wearing off? Or dedication towards the blog? CONGRATS!!!
