I just met my cousins Ryan and Taylor

Tonight my cousins Ryan and Taylor came to visit me. And I just found out that Ryan is going to be my Godfather. Taylor, like Nora, took lots of pictures of me. Today was awesome, my Mom got to hold me. It felt so good to be in her arms. The doctors moved the tube from my stomach to my arm, it feels much better now. Grandma Houlihan also came to visit me today, I can't wait for the summer to go to Grandmas house in Long Beach. Special Aunt Kerry came by and brought dinner for Mom and Dad. She also brought me my first bathing suit, I should be able to fit into it by next summer. Kerry also brought me an olympic size swimming pool for three-hundred of my closest friends. Aunt Kathleen stopped by to check on my yoga exercises and told Mom and Dad I was at the head of the class. Time to go to bed now its been a long day, I look forward to meeting Grandma Smith and Great Aunt Gert on Saturday. I hope Grandma Smith brings Mom some of her famous chocolate chip cookies. I'll also get to meet Aunt Molly and Uncle Peter this weekend,I hear they will soon have a playmate for me, a Danny,Grace and Claire to hang out with,hmmmm, two girls, two boys. Thanks for all of your prayers. Hopefully cousin Taylor will get some pictures up tonight.

As you can see my days are pretty busy so please call my Aunt Bridge to schedule an appointment.

Margaret and Jim want to thank everyone for all the messages of support, it means the world to us. We want you to know that this site offers us a way to communicate our feelings about our experience. In the last four days our lives have been forever changed, we cannot now imagine life without Jack. Jack will soon undergo many important tests and we ask that you continue to keep him in your prayers.
Love,

Jack, Mom and Dad

Hi Jack!

It does sound like you had a big day. From the picture, it seems like Mom and Dad did too. After visiting you last night, Aunt Bridget is now asking me to install one of those blue lights to keep her warm too.

St. Patrick's Day is just a few days away, and I like seeing you sport all those shamrocks. Keep up the good work.

Uncle Mike

Margaret & Jim: We just want you to know that we are praying for Jack each night. He is in the best
hospital for premies. Our grandchildren Keira and Colin were
born there and are 13 months now.
Keira was 2lbs.7oz and now is 18lbs. Colin was 3lbs.1oz and is now 22lbs. Jack will grow too!! Lots of love, Loretta & Marty

I will attest to the fact that Jack is a beautiful baby, having now seen him in person!! He looks way bigger than his 2+ pounds...He's got really long arms and legs and looks quite comfy in his digs. He even opened his eyes a few times to look at his mommy.
Congratulations again, Margaret & Jim, and Happy Birthday Jack!!

(Jim, at some point you'll need to tell me in what context you use the word "special" when describing me...
