As some of you may know, I was the last male with the Harford last name in a large branch of the family tree. So we were happy to find out that we were having a boy. Grandpa George has always been interested in the family history, so he was excited to hear about his great grandson as well.

Now that we have a boy, the pressure is off me, and on to Matthew. I guess there still is a chance for more boys in the family, but my mom is hoping for the next one to be a girl. Four male grandchildren is enough for her.

Great Grandpa George (GGG) is in palliative care in North Vancouver, so we took Matthew for a visit. Unfortunately I can’t show the pages on the blog so you’ll have to follow the link. Picasa is excellent for displaying pictures though, and they don’t have any annoying banner ads. Check it out!

Look how Grandma Harford and I found Matthew!  He had peed all over himself…I hope that he didn’t get it in his mouth!

A Proud Grandma!

His cord fell off yesterday…it was so smelly! I wonder if it will be an innie or an outie

Grandpa and Matthew about to watch the hockey game! Not sure at this point if Grandpa Tetreau will be able to take his eyes off Matthew to watch the game!

I can see in Grandma Tetreau’s eyes…PLEASE can I pick him up!!!

First bath at home! And here he goes peeing again!

He was so content in the water for the bath until mommy washed his hair and then oh boy did he ever get MAD!

Warming up after the bath!

Check out Daddy’s waking up strategies! Note the time on the computer monitor. Matthew was due for a feeding and boy was he ever not wanting to wake up!
