Whew...




Langston is fitting right in to the family groove. He is a pretty good sleeper, but does not like to be put down. Kerry just bought one of those "Mobey Wraps" and loves it (so does Langston). He will stay tucked in there all day cuddling close to mom.





The last two weeks flashed before our eyes. Two weeks ago, my mom came into town to help with the kids which was great. We all enjoyed her visit, but I wasn't home much. I had meetings in Fortworth one day, then spent the end of the week and weekend in Taiwan. When I came back I had to entertain customers who came to town for our new office open house... golf and deep sea fishing were the highlights.

We are excited for this coming week because we have no major events scheduled. Grace is already bored with summer and is looking forward to starting school. London is excited to be starting school in the fall. Kerry is getting the travel bug again and is starting to make a list of suggested places for a family vacation. We are hoping Langston like the car better than his siblings did. They all screamed if they were in the car for more than 10 minutes.

Baby Langston Has Arrived

Langston Spears was born 5/28 at 10:30am, weighing in at 8lbs 1oz and 20 inches tall.

He is a good baby. Kerry is amazing, I think he was a 3 pusher. Both mom and baby are home and doing well. We are all very excited to have him to complete our family. The kids love him and Joseph refers to Langston by name when he is not crying, and by "momma's baby" when he is crying.

In other news, I shot myself with a nail gun on memorial day. The 4.5" nail penetrated about 1.5"s into my ankle. I had to use both hands to yank it out and was given a powerful antibiotic in case of infection. Well... I had a bad reaction to the medicine and had to go back in for a steriod shot. We are hoping the pain in my hands and arms goes away. Scary stuff, but I am still angry I forgot to get a picture of the nail in my leg... it would have made it all worth it.
