The big news is that Baby Ronen is finally here! Ronen Patsy Cobb was born on April 3, 2015 at
9:40 AM by C-section. She was 18 and 1/2 inches long, and 6lbs 4oz. She is amazing. She looks very similar to Evie Sue as a baby except for the fact that she has dark hair and a smaller (than Evie) head. Both Mommy and baby did a great job and after spending Easter weekend in the hospital we all came home. Luckily, Sara's mom Grandma Linda was in town and lending a helping hand with our growing family during those 1st few days. Her presence allowed me to go back to work knowing that Sara had a little bit of extra help during those daytime hours. She's been gone a few days now and we're adjusting to being on our own with our two girls. The sleeping schedule as you can imagine has been a little off as of late but it's been fun. Evie Sue loves being a big sister so far, and has acted out only in tiny ways such as not following directions the 1st time, talking back, and other little acts of defiance. She is really sweet with the baby though.
Oh yeah, and in a week I will be turning 40. Forty! This is hard for me to wrap my head around since many times I still feel like a bumbling adolescent. If I look at the facts, however, it becomes painfully obvious that I am a middle aged man. (Boy, that was hard for me to write.) I have a family, responsibilities, debt, a receding hairline, a growing waistline and more grey hairs than I know what to do with. When did this happen? I mean, the grey hairs have been multiplying for some time but 40? Really? Yes, really. It's okay though, I have hear that 40 is the new 21 or something like that.
So in summary, during the month of April, I have become a father for the second time and just weeks before turning the big 40! Whatamonthwhatamonthwhatamonth!
(I'd intended to add pics to this post but forgot to bring a thumb drive to the library, where I am updating my blog. I'll try and post pics soon.)
