Baby Maximus Andrew has arrived! June 1st weighing in at 7lbs 15 oz and 20 1/2 inches long. He has a head full of dark hair, and also is a fuzzy thing too! 
He is such a sweet thing. Barely squeeks at all! AND he sucks his thumb or first finger, and holds them there with the other hand. Doctors say he must have been doing this all along!
Daughter in law went into the hosptial with pains late Saturday evening, they sent her back home saying she probably just had a UTI...she was NOT in labor...well once she got home she said the pains just intensified, and she was in very intense pain...so by the next morning she called her mom, who went over to check on her...she took her to the hospital...by the time they got there...Daughter in law was in FULL labor...and pushing...the doctor almost didn't make it to the delivery! 
UGH! Anyway,,,all went well and mommy and baby are doing terrific.
Cute little side note...Kyah...big sister at 14 mo., really was interested in her little brother on day one...she hasn't been jealous one bit when mommy or daddy hold her brother...HOWEVER...if grandma holds him, oh boy...that big green eyed monster of jealousy really rears it's ugly head! 
Oh boy...it happened the first day we visited and again yesterday! If I hold him she tries to push him off my lap...she doesn't even like it if I hold her too!
Well we are getting some MUCH needed rain today. Our garden was looking like a desert!...We finally planted all our plants...as the weather has been decent enough to do so. We haven't had any frost since we put them in.
This afternoon we have our home interview with the 4H coordinator to place our Japanese exchange student with us for the summer. It is a 4week summer program. The student will be about the same age as our youngest son...about 13 or 14. And then next summer our son has the opportunity to spend 4 weeks in Japan with this same student and his family. We are so excited about doing this.
Well my break is about over, and I have to prepare for the next lessons...5 and 1/2 days left of the school year. Whahoo...snow days are really nice when we have them...but making them up isn't too much fun! Tee Hee...
Blessings everyone!
