Since we’ve been in Swaziland 4 new babies have joined our group of friends and family. First to arrive was a cute little boy named Gabriel, then came Etienne, a beautiful baby boy, then came Allegra, a beautiful baby girl… and just within the past few weeks my brother and his wife welcomed their adorable little daughter into the world—Mya Grace Cook. Congratulations, newest parents!! We cannot wait to meet her in person.
So on the scorecard, it’s a tie ballgame right now: 2 for the boys and 2 for the girls. There is in fact a tie-breaker baby on the way (Jon & Jess)… is it a boy or a girl??
Yesterday Jamie-girl pointed out that there are nearly as many pics of babies on our wall-o-pictures as adults, despite the fact that we know far more adults than babies. It’s true: the babies and toddlers are disproportionately represented on the wall, and I think it’s unfair. We’ve known them for far less time than most other friends/family, and yet they’re getting top billing on the wall. But you know, it’s an injustice we’re both quite willing to overlook due to one overriding reason: these kids are really, really photogenic. I mean, they’re just cute—Lilly, Brennan, Gabriel, Mya, Etienne, Allegra—and I guess cuteness wins out. If any of you adult friends/family were as downright adorable as these kids are, then you too would dominate our wall-o-pictures… but the little ones have us all beat in that department.

My second boy was born january 29th, 2009. He's name's JOSEPH. You can check out the picture on my facebook account.
See you.
Gabriel
John and Jess had a baby girl, Sofia. So with Gabe's Joseph things are still tied.
