Baby!

It's official I'm a dad. My little girl was born on March 17th at 1:03 am and weighed in at a whopping 10 lbs 13 oz! Blowing away all family records on both sides. Her name is Ariana. A beautiful Russian name I heard on my mission in Siberia.
Mom and baby are doing great, thought my wonderful wife has had a rough time through out all this. Still she is one tough woman, going through a lot this last day with hardly any pain medication (this even being after she already had the baby). I know I couldn't have done it. Anyway things are going great and mom is recovering well. I'll post more later, but here's a pic to tide you over. Enjoy the explosion of cuteness.

Life and Death 2

What a week. So much has happened and we finally have a chance to sit back.

First off we got a management position at an apartment complex this past week. Meaning we moved closer to my wife's doctor, and will be within walking distance from everything (two big pluses). Took less time than we thought, despite all of our stuff.
Second, as I mentioned my grandma passed away last week. We had the funeral today. It was really nice. Not really a sad time, but a celebration of a great life, and a realization of how many people she has blessed. So many things I never knew about my grandma... what an amazing woman.
The hardest thing was seeing my dad's grave right beside hers. I really miss him. Things will work out great though. An exciting new adventure, and soon a new life will begin for my daughter. I'm really looking forward to raising her.
Well enough digression. I will hopefully be able to get one last Legendary post in tomorrow. Then I will consult my Cup of Doom to see what the new theme this next month will be. So until tomorrow.
