I have finally decided to make the big leap into the world of blogging to help keep family and friends up to date on the latest adventures of the Rickman boys. The latest adventure happened on July 6th, 2007 when we welcomed Robert James Rickman into our family. Robbie was a big boy - weighing in at 8 pounds and 6.6 ounces. He was 21.25 inches long and had a head of red hair. Since the very first hour, he has been an enthusiasitc eater! This has promptly earned him his first nickname of mini moose.
Older brother Michael (aka Mighty Mike) is adjusting to having him home. Occasionally, he will look over and gently touch the baby, but for the most part is more interested in his toys. He doesn't love having mommy, daddy, or daisy hold the little one though.
We have had lots of great help the first two week. Nana and Papa came for the first week and Gram and Grampy have been here for the second week. We couldn't have done it without them.
Stay tuned for our upcoming adventures!
