    but I'm back and here is a picture of my new son Remington Bates. Bates was my great uncle KIA in the war. Its a family name pre Civil War starting as a last name and eventually became a first name. I was out voted naming my son Bates, but was able to slide it in as a middle name. The first one is when we just got home from the hospital and the other one he is around 7 weeks old. I get in trouble for saying he is pudgy...but well...he is:D

    Krystal, I really like the 2nd photo. Cute as a bugs ear, as the saying goes. How long before he starts posting? ;)

    Thanks so much everyone! He's an easy baby...wish I could say that about the first one (he's a wild man). Sleeps from 9:30-3:30 every night.
