It's beautiful. I love the colours.

And I know you didn't want this to be "baby blog" but from a mother who loves getting a baby fix, please keep writing about Thumper and motherhood--I love it.

Thumper is incredible.

I'm not sure which is more stunning - the boy or the blanket. They make a great pair.

Thumper is extremely cute. I wonder if you can guess who made what squares...

This is what happened:
I put the new-dog to bed.
I'm watching TV.
Lala's in the bath.
Then she gets out, and I hear, "Rachael!"
Now, you know when your partner says your name, it's serious. "Did you see Cari's blog yet?"
Oh, honey. He's beautiful. I can't wait to kiss him for real.
mwah.

Yay, he likes it! And he kinda matches it!

He is gorgeous. Did I say that already? I'll say it again later, I'm sure.

Posted by: Michelle

What a beautiful baby! And you are so right when you said that the important thing is that you brought home a healthy baby. Congratulations!

Posted by: Lisa

Oh, he's a gorgeous, sturdy boy! Kinda reminds me of someone who is turning 20 tomorrow. Sniff.
