So we have an April Fools baby, and all of you that know my family know just how fitting that is! Joseph Austin made April 1st by 18 minutes! 6 lbs 12.5 oz, a tiny one for us, though 21 inches is standard, lol. Jessica, (Austins wife.) had a hard day, labor was intensive and they had to induce her twice.
As some of you are also aware I have been very worried about Austin for some time. He was not hanging out with a great crowd and Jessica and him were playing lots of childish games with each other. Youth has a great deal to do with that, they are both 18. Austins home life was never really conducive to making a stand up man, but he moved to Arizona, married Jessica and now has a baby. I am hoping with all my heart that he has really gotten a grip on things and has come to realize that he has responsibilities. We had many late night conversations about what it means to be a man, a husband and most importantly a daddy. I know he really wanted this baby and though he is young I know he has the heart for it. I am very excited to have been made a second cousin for the second time this year!
Just after Valentines day my cousin Harley from the other side of the family gave us a beautiful little girl Mazzy! A 9 pounder too!!! I have a beautiful family!
