Fresh Blood
Remember Remberg, our dear friend and devoted helper?
Well, Remmy is a daddy! His wife, Meagan, gave birth last Wednesday to a very healthy, strapping baby boy (9 lbs and 22 inches long – my body hurts for her!) named Wyatt. Rem is the first in our group of friends to have a baby, so it’s a very special time for all of us. Take a look at the little guy:
See how he can already hold his own bottle after just a few days of being alive? I figure in just a couple more days, he’ll be ready to hold a drill and then he can help us finish drywalling our house.
It will be great to have such a young back to help us with heavy lifting, and all that youthful enthusiasm is sure to keep our spirits up. With a vocabulary of just “goo” and “gaa,” he might have a hard time asking for certain tools, but we’re willing to work around that. At least now I’ll have someone to cry with when I get all stressed out and frustrated with our remodeling project. Yup, Baby Remmy came along at just the right time!
I’m kidding! I’m sure Grandma Remmy, who reads this blog, is about ready to kill me for even suggesting such things.
Rem and Meagan, congrats on your beautiful baby boy. We are so excited for you and can’t wait to get to know him better. If you ever need a babysitter and grandma and grandpa are unavailable, just give Aunt Lizzie and Uncle Joey a call.
Remberg sent me this email after reading this post:
Aunt Liz,
Wyatt would like to thank you for giving him a “shout-out” (I think that’s what the kids are calling it these days!) on your blog. He is very grateful for the recognition and is anxious to get ahold of that drill. He appologizes, however, that he can’t quite figure out how to use his hands well enough to do so yet.
He says to check back with him next week for an update.
