my beautiful wife sure can grow them...

son #1 (7 lbs. 11 oz. 20 in.) & son #2 (7 lbs. 8 oz. 20 in.)

up first is son #1:

directly from the operating room to the nicu...

a precautionary overnight oxygen party at the nicu...

the following day at the nursery without most of the tubes...


meeting his uncle gumbo...

already working his magic on grandma...

in the meantime, with son #2:

missing big brother with his beautiful mama...

his first nap in his papa's arms...

showing off his little pinoy nose...

scrawny legged and enjoying the new found space...

swaddled and content waiting for big brother...

to be continued tomorrow...

although this post has nothing to with my beautiful wife, i declare to the world that i love her and i can be cheesy as macaroni...

to those who have found it a little bit more difficult being a latter-day saint in california in this election season, the link below may be found useful. it is a talk given by elder robert d. hales this recent general conference.

http://www.lds.org/conference/talk/display/0,5232,23-1-947-22,00.html

although the talk was primarily aimed at the adversities of religious contentions, those of us living in california (and i include the denizens of arizona and florida due to their similar circumstances) may find the words of elder hales applicable to the political situations that we are entrenched in. remember, sticks and stones...

another reason i love my wife...

thank you p**** g******!!!!!!
