Now Introducing Korben Scott...

Weighing in at - 8lbs 3oz.

Birthday Weather - During the two years we lived in WA I remember it snowing to the point of sticking to the roads one time... on this Monday you were born.

Going Home - We headed for home from Evergreen Hospital just 2 days after your arrival.  When we arrived there were 3 stockings hanging from the fireplace. Dada had them made for our new family of three.  I remember seeing the stocking that read Mom.  It was at this moment that I actually realized I was a mother, that God had entrusted a life into my hands to nourish, to comfort, and to love.

First Few Days -  The first few days were difficult for me... I remember thinking now what.  I have had all these great baby products scattered through  the house now for months ready for the arrival of Baby Widmer #1 and now he is here I don't have a clue what I am doing.  I am not sure anyone can thoroughly  prepare for the life change that takes place after the arrival of a baby.
