Billy Goat

Man, are we ready to sleep as soon as James goes down this evening...
We have had to turn up the heat in house today- it is cool outside but little Bill's temp was a bit low this morning so the midwives put an extra hot water bottle in, we cranked up the radiators, and brought in the spare space heater.

By this afternoon he was up to normal temp and sleeping comfortably with his basket propped up above the radiator.
They don't measure length yet here- but Will is a little smaller than James was (though already eating more so we are not worried at all) at 6 lbs. 11 oz. (if I converted 3040 grams correctly...)

Oh my! He is GORGEOUS!!! What a precious little guy. Look at all that hair! Is it darker than James? Billy Goat - how funny. DON'T teach that one to Mames. It may stick!! :)

You look AWESOME Katharine. You don't look like you gave birth less than 20 hours ago! You ROCK!!

This new techonology is awsome, where else could you have such wonderful parents who put you on the internet right after you are born. Welcome to the world William B. Maier. All that hair is definitely in the maier genes. He is beautiful.

Little Bill is the sweetest thing ever - he looks a lot like Mames. : )
