Sebastian has been doing great.  Mommy and I are so happy he has come to stay with our family.  I don’t really think he had much choice in the matter, but we still feel super blessed to have this great little man! 

Sebastian had his first checkup today and he is doing great.  He has already gained nearly 10 ounces since he left the hospital.  I give a lot of credit to both Annie and Sebastian on the great work.

We are all sleeping a bit. Annie lets me get a big chunk in at night and then she sleeps off and on throughout the day.  Sebastian might be starting a schedule a bit, but I think it is way too early to tell.

Basically, life is grand!

This is a test, I repeat only a test.

To find stories that are stupid and not news worthy go here

Again, I repeat this is a test.



Again, why are you still here? I am testing.  Why do you care?

Lots and lots of visitors on his second day of life.  Sebastian got circumsized and didn't seem to mind that much at all.  He came around 8 P.M. where Grandma and Grandpa Newman were waiting for him.  We all had pizza, then Grandpa left to go home and Grandma stayed.  Annie went to bed and I started unpacking sorting the bags.

He slept a little bit through his first night, mostly with Grandma or I holding him or Annie feeding him.

He seems happy and content and is eating like a champ.  Not sure what else you could ask for.

Grand Dad Larry sent over the photos he took of the little guy and they can be see here.

He had a lot of friends and family stop by today.  I tried to take pictures of everyone but missed a few here and there.  Everyone is doing great.  Here is the next set of pictures.

Sebastian Lane Hilbert was born on March 20, 2009 at 6:41 P.M.   He is a tall boy at 21 inches.  He weighed 7 lbs .75 ounces.  He has a head of dark hair and baby blue eyes.  We are so excited to have him in our family.

Mom and Dad are doing great!

The baby boy missed his due date of the 16th of March.  I figured he would.  I have him pegged as a 21st baby myself.  He will share his birthday with friends and family if that is the case.  I was sort of bummed that he wasn't born today, St. Patrick's day as I had convinced that I would make his middle name, "O'".  Sebastian O' Hilbert.   Don't tell me that isn't strong.   While I might have been convinced Annie was anything but, so I guess that probably wouldn't have happened.Everything is nearly ready for his arrival.  We have a few more minor things here and there to do, but the big things are in place and ready to go.  Annie is really wanting him to show up NOW.  I am wanting him to show up when he is ready.  I can wait.   I will only live this particular lifestyle for a very finite amount of time, so I will enjoy it while it last.Beautiful weather, I hope it stays that way.  I think I will plant something on the day he is born, or right around then and see who wins as far as height goes....

It is a great day in Central Indiana it is in the mid-60s, I have the windows opened, letting out all of that stale winter air.  Rocking it out to Horads.de live audio stream.  Couldn't ask for much more.

The blog has sufferred as I have been using Twitter lately.  That is what those short little weird messages at the top of the page.  If you are interested in knowing more check me out http://twitter.com/slhilbert

Also, I have broken down and joined Facebook and I actually sort of like it.  It is nice to know what people of yester year are doing.  While people come and go in our lives, shared experiences remain with us forever.  Friend me at slhilbert

In the business world things are going great! Lots of work to do, so much that I am finding it hard to keep up.  This is a good thing for sure and I feel blessed to be so busy especially during these times.

I continue to my interest in politics and found these times quite interesting.  Unfortunately,...
