+CYBret Posted October 3, 2002 Share Posted October 3, 2002 And yep, I was wearing my Geocaching hat when he was born. By the way, as a point of clarification: His name is "CONNOR," not "O'CONNOR." I mean, who'd do THAT to a kid?!?!? Bret "The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again." Mt. 13:44 Quote Link to comment

+Mopar Posted October 3, 2002 Share Posted October 3, 2002 We KNOW your the one that did all the hard work up to this point, so sit back, enjoy a cigar (hey, wait, wheres ours?) and let the wife do all the work from now on. PS. Yes, I'm kidding Illegitimus non carborundum! Quote Link to comment

You know, like "Garmin". You finally have your boy, Bret... No longer can the women in your house gang up on you three to one.

+Planet Posted October 5, 2002 Share Posted October 5, 2002 And especially to your wife. Hope the birth was an easy one. I went to my nephew's wedding this weekend and took the coordinates of the spot they were married. Also, gave them a GPS for a present. Now they'll never not have something to do together. Cache you later, Planet Quote Link to comment

+CYBret Posted October 8, 2002 Author Share Posted October 8, 2002 quote:Originally posted by umc:Any new updates or pics? These two kids "tag-teamed" us last night. When one was asleep, the other would wake up. I'm pretty sure it's their plan to keep us dazed and confused for the next 18 to 20 years! That's Connor on the left, of course. He's doing great--eating like a horse. That's his 15 month old sister, Grace wearing my hat. She seems to have doubled in size since we brought Connor home. No real jealousy problems . . she already knows who's boss. The oldest is 10 and she wasn't available for photograph. But it should be known that she's the only person in the house who got a full night's sleep last night! Lucky kid! Bret "The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field.
