It happened in the rainy April pre-dawn hours...

..Earlier today , at about 3:20 am .
Owen Thomas came into the world , and into
the loving arms of our daughter , Maureen ,
and son-in-law Tom ...
our 2nd grandson !

20 "....6lbs , 15oz ....healthy , with dark hair ,
just like Maureen had at her birth ...

Maureen 1983-11-21

Kathy made a visit , along with 'Owen  groupies' from
both sides .... not me , still harboring a bevy of dangerous
cold germs ( there's probably much worse germs floating
around that 'clean' hospital air !)

Hooray !...Jacob and Morgan have themselves  a new cousin !

As always , more pics at Adairfamilyworldpics site in the right column !

PS......Congratulations to DIANE on her last day ,sunday, working at my brother Rob's store after 20 +
years of helping customers for ,at first my mom & dad, and then Rob ....more time now to cater to  my dad & keep him in line & out of trouble , whether he's here or out in Vegas !

a quick post-easter , pre-birth note ...

That's right !...Mo & Tom's baby is due any
day...nay , any HOUR now , so i must be brief...
just in case...
It's busy now , anyway , with work , impending
projects , etc.

Amy & Kevin & Jacob had a successful move
to their new home in Oak creek...and just picked
up Seeker the cat after her extended stay with us..
NOW we can get new carpeting !

Jacob (that little Scamp!) is apparently
thriving in his new stomping grounds and
 is slowly but surely gaining the skills to take more
than a single step or two , unaided ...as we see here...

Easter brunch went great with all the kids over at Casa Adair

...the only sad exception being there was no Easter basket hunt

as in years past ...we will wait for the next generation of kids

to get old enough to do the hunting , now !



See you after baby Riha makes it here !
