We're very excited about the new baby, aka "Cosmo" (Clara gave him/her that name last week). <BR/><BR/>I'm feeling very good, just a little tired (like all parents I guess). We'll find out in a few weeks if it's a boy or girl!

If Kate knew what was coming she'd be pissed - she likes being the baby.<BR/><BR/>@Chad - Always nice to meet another stay-at-home dad. Good luck on your move. <BR/><BR/>@Shauna - More babies to love on and take pictures of! <BR/><BR/>@Rosemary & Annarose - we could only be so lucky to have a family as great as yours. As for that sibling study, I saw that and actually started to see how some parents fall into giving the older sibling more attention. <BR/><BR/>@Rebecca - you are welcome to live vicariously through me and this blog any time.<BR/><BR/>@Danille - You're a scorpio, too?

I'd like nothing more than to have lots of little ones and stay home with them.
