It's A Boy!!

We have a new son. Born on the 14th and weighing 8 pounds, 14.5 ounces and 20" long. Believe it or not, we are still working on a name for him.
That brings the balance to the boys favor now: 6 Sons and 5 Daughters. It also gives a playmate to the youngest boy in the near future. He is a mess, by the way (the next to youngest). Really out of sorts with the new baby and whiny and complaining. I don't know what to do with him, truthfully. He cries whenever he is corrected in the smallest way, and is difficult to get interested in anything. I think he is jealous about the baby somewhat which is normal. He is also teething some as well, so that is adding to his misery.
I've had to start cracking the whip on the other kids. They want to get away with not doing their chores since Mom is not after them. I'm much harder on them as far as requiring the work to be done. It's fine with me, though. I like to keep the ship clean and orderly, so they all have to do their share.

The new baby is a lot of fun ... the poop machine is if full action already.
Actually, I love having a newborn in the house. The wonder of new life is a blessing to witness no matter how many times I see it.
