in the words of John Lennon..........BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL.....BEAUTIFUL BOY........





funny thing.......when i told my mother that we would be going in at 6am Wed. for the induction, i made sure to tell her not to show up at 6am as nothing would be happening for hours.........she gave me her word.....Mom waltzed through the door at 6:20am.....guess i should've been more specific.....


Aidan Shane Allen was born at St. Joseph Hospital Wed. August 23rd at 8:09pm.........he was born perfect.........10 fingers 10 toes.....i know this because i counted 5 or 6 times.......perhaps just a wee bit influenced by the worrying beta male protagonist of Christopher Moore's book "A DIRTY JOB"....

7lbs14oz......20&1/4 inches long......a head full of dark hair(hence Trixie's heartburn throughout the pregnancy)......i saw the hair on his head early on and the nurses talked about how Aidan was trying to move his head to correct an unfavorable presentation........at that i made the comment "he's gonna come out spitting fire".........the fire alarm went off in the hospital as Aidan came into the world..........we hardly even noticed........but the world best be put on notice.......

Cherish your family,folks..........
