SchadeBLOG

I would like to take the opportunity now to announce to the world that on August 8, 2007, my newest son was born to our family.  Adam Keith is his name, and the world better watch out because he’s here to rock. I don’t have a lot of time right now to tell his entire birth story, so I’ll be brief.

No, wait, there’s not time for that.  So let me sum up.

Basically, Adam had decided to arrive about five to six weeks early.  Our little town’s hospital is not equipped to care for babies born at that stage of development, so Mrs. Schadeboy was sent to Tucson Medical Center in - get this - Tucson, Arizona.  She got to ride in the helicopter for this (color me jealous).  I drove, so it took me about an hour longer to get to the hospital.

The short end is Adam was born at 9:35 AM on 8-August-2007.  Being early meant he might have had lung development issues, but he’s breathing well now and looking incredible.  He is 4 years and 1 day younger than his oldest sister, Monkey (this will make birthdays fun, no?).  He’s a trooper, and I will give more details about his very adventurous first day on the Earth later.

I did manage to peak at his diary, though.  Yesterday’s entry said “Day 1 - still tired from the move.”*
