I promised updates on the Ebelings and my play date, so here they are:
Josiah Jonathan Ebeling was born early this morning, at 4:20 a.m. , after quite a long labor (at least compared to mine!). He is 8 lb. 1 oz. and 22 inches long (Ruth was just 22 in. at her 2-month checkup!). Everyone is doing well. Congratulations to the new mommy and daddy! We can't wait to meet Josiah. We had hoped to go visit today, but with the 13+ inches of snow we got last night, and a broken plow, we couldn't get a vehicle out of our unplowed alley :( You can see some pictures on Diana's blog. I'll post some here as soon as we get to see the little guy.
The visit to the Rose's went well. Gabe slept most of the time, and Ruthie took a little nap also. So there wasn't much interaction between the babies. Gabe is about 6 weeks old (about 5 weeks younger than Ruth). It was interesting to see how much difference even a month can make at this age. Since Gabe was sleeping in his swing, Ruth got to play with his toys without competition. She really liked his bouncy seat and the animals that hung from it. Gabe's dad, Eric, thinks Ruth would make a good boxer :)
Since it is no fun to leave a post without including a picture...here is one of Ruth enjoying tummy time!
