We finally came home from the hospital, and now Aleese is telling me I need to give better details of what happened. Barrick was born at 1:25 on DEC 23, 2007. He weighed in at a whopping 5 pounds and 3.8 ounces. After extensive workout he now is stable at 4 lbs. and 13 oz.
Born at NNMC (National Naval Medical Center) he was one of only seven babies born over the holiday. He came three weeks early when we found out Aleese was runnin on low fluids. They tried to induce her but after many many many hours decided it needed to be done by C-section.
C-sections are really cool. At least, to watch. Aleese will probably tell you it was not so cool. But then again, who is cooler?

This is our first family photo. Mark it well for this is the beginning of great things to come.....

Barricks first attempt at acting. Science fiction is not for him. Ok, really he needed to be under the lights to fix his tan. Like the goggles?

He is ADORABLE! It would be interesting to see his parents' baby photos for comparison. Glad to see Momma and baby are getting the much needed rest. My second son came home and had to sleep in the "tanning bed" for a week.
Barrick is so cute and so tiny. We are glad that you were able to bring him home with you. We did miss you at Christmas! Love, US
Either your baby is tiny, or my baby is a fat old man. Barrick is beautiful!
Beautiful family!!! Merry Christmas. So happy to see you all home and having a great time. Miss Ya and Love Ya

Congratulations!!! I am so happy for us both! Hahaha. Barrick is adorable and I'm glad you are doing so well Aleese. What an adorable family! We are excited for Lucy to meet Barrick, i'm sure they'll become fast friends. Take Care.
He is so cute! I love that first family picture...he's so little! I'm glad all is going well. Love you guys!
Cute, cute, cute! I can't believe how tiny he is, especially in your family picture- you two look like giants. I am so happy that he is home from the hospital and everything is going well. We missed you guys at Christmas, we will have to make sure we come to Utah at the same time this Summer!
A Christmas shrine? What? What?
He is tiny, but so cute congrats guys. Our babies were 5lbs 2oz and 5lbs 11oz. But I don't remember them being that little. Just think of two of baby Barrick in your belly at the same time. Not fun!
Ya know, kids...I would've thought after all these years you would've named him after ME. Chris is a fine name for a strapping lad!
Congrats you guys! Glad to see you are doing so well, and I'll check out your blog now and again. You can check out mine too if you want, althought its probably mostly nerdy stuff.
