New Month, New Place, New Baby!

We have a new and exciting grandson - Declan Porter Schaadt was born earlier than anticipated and Nanny wasn't available for the birth but arrived a few days later.  
     After spending a short, short time in Maine, I went home for a week and then flew out to CA to be with Gillian for baby #2.  However, things moved along quicker than we thought and Declan arrived a couple of weeks earlier than expected.
     The baby is adorable, of course, and Owen is the perfect big brother.  He likes the baby and seems to be concerned about him - thats a good thing.  Zamboni feels as though he has been pushed to 3rd place - oh well!
      Ronda was here when I arrived and we had a few hours and an overnight of overlap.  It was great of her to fly out and help them out - especially since the baby was born on a Friday and the weekend was looming.  I think it all worked out nicely.
     I am helping Gillian pack boxes for their pending move into a house.  So far, so good.  More news later.
