Introducing a new Hero

Hello all! We are pleased to announce that the Penguin has arrived! He is also home from the Hospital and that the Math Hero and the Penguin are healthy and happy. He doesn't have a Heroic name yet, but his name is Dad's middle name.

He was born on Monday, Oct. 18, 2010 at 2:29pm. He weighed 8 lbs 3 oz, and is 20 inches long. The nurses couldn't believe that I was carrying a baby that big. They didn't know how he fit in.

Interruption of Vacation Posts

This past week and a half I have spent every available moment (naps and early bed time) to finish this project for the Penguin. Which is why I was doing really well with blogging and then stopped. My blogging time was consumed with this quilt.

It's made with bug fabric and bright boy colors. I am also pleased to announce that I did the quilting on my machine all by myself!

There are two more projects I want to get done before the penguin comes, but I've finished two of the projects! I'm doing awesome!

Penguin Here

One of the first things we saw this morning was the Penguin waving to us! It was adorable! I'm beginning to fall in love with this baby! He's active and moved around a ton for the ultrasound.
Yes, he's a BOY! We get two lovely little boys to play around with. He also "talked" a lot during the ultrasound. Whenever we saw his mouth, it was moving.

Penguin

There is not much to say right now. We are in the midst of company and playing lots. Baby Hero loves having his cousin over, especially since she's not big enough to take his toys away from him.

I feel the penguin move all the time now and it's making me feel pregnant--in a good, creepy sort of way. I mean, who really wants their intestines kicked, prodded and pushed around? Within a week we will know what the penguin is. So now's the time to place a vote.

We'll have pictures later.
