Now we are six!

The newest member of the Ros family, Christopher Stewart.


Last Wednesday we welcomed Christopher into our family, yes we finally managed a boy! Poor thing! His sisters have done well with the transition so far, but the newness has yet to wear off. Julianne is enamored with him, constantly wanting to know where he is, and as soon as she finds him, she'll point her little finger at him and whisper "bebe!" She gets a little jealous when other people hold him and wants to give him lots of bear hugs! Molly helped bring him home from the hospital and very proudly helped with all of her assigned duties. And Caroline has yet to notice that he's here! Not really. She's taking everything in stride, helping when asked, especially with Julianne, and gives lots of little kisses to Christopher when she passes by.
We brought him home yesterday morning, and by the afternoon, both Eric and I had the tired look of "My God, what have we done" on our faces.
We have now begun what Eric refers to as Operation Tire Out the Cuckoos! Right now, we have a great 1:1 ratio with Bob here and Eric on paternity leave, but I sense our mission will become Operation Try to Outlast the Cuckoos very soon!
