a little more Moore to go around


Hello cyberspace. This is Richard at the microphone. Usually my wife shapes clever little blog posts, but with an urgent need for baby pics fast, my ham-handed blogification will have to suffice. Joshua David Moore was borne at 12:27 PM on June 16, 2009. He weighed in at a whopping 9 lbs 13 oz, though he's surely broken 10 lbs by now (investment hint: buy enfamil stock, sales are heading up!). He's healthy and beautiful (who says "we just had an ugly kid"?). The extra weight may make him sturdy enough to survive the often lethal play techniques that Hannah and Sam continue to develop. Sarah is in a lot of pain, but she is recovering well. We hope to have her home Thursday or Friday evening.

Way to go Sarah! You made it! And he's way stinkin' cute. That second picture sort of looks like you're trying to do a spiky hair do. So cute!

He is so dang cute!!! (I feel I need to make a disclaimer: o.k. so, ultrasoud weight guestimates are frequently off, however... as evidenced here, they can be right sometimes. ;-) Can't wait to see him!

Congrats, Congrats. My little bro weighed in at 10 lbs 8 oz and they were going to name him Andrew Paul Ekins, but alas with that birth weight they decided against the initials of APE and went with John. Yea for more Moores!
