Okay, I forgot how sleep deprived we can get from a little 2 week old baby. He wakes up approx every 2 hrs to feed (24 hrs a day).....AND THAT"S NORMAL!!! I'm tired, but Sharyn has been a true champ. Brody is doing well and Brynn, thankfully, still adores him. I haven't seen any jealousy yet, but it's inevitable. My parents are visiting and got to see their new grandson for the first time. It's been nice because we can let them watch the kids while we catch up on some much needed sleep. Hope you are all enjoying your summers. Wear sunscreen!!!!! A tan is nice, but not having skin cancer is much nicer. Be safe,

Updates
Hey gang,
Thanks for the comments, keep them coming. I love hearing from you all. Brody is doing well. I'd put his picture up, but the internet...my wife....the crazy people....I'm basically not allowed, haha. But like the spirit of an eighth grader, I did it anyways. He's growing quickly and had his first check up today. He passed all the tests, which is reassuring. Zach, sorry to put a damper on your summer by making you realize the days are now getting shorter. When you get to be older the years start doing the same thing.
My brother told me you can see Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter out in the morning sky. Remember Venus is the brightest one. Mars is right next to it. Mercury is VERY VERY low on the horizon. It's hard to see, but give it a try.
Look forward to hearing from you guys. Iplan on keeping the blog running all summer. Hope to hear from you,
Mr C

He's Here!!!
I know it's been a while, but the best things come to those who wait, right?
He was born Thursday (June 18th)morning and we got home Saturday (June 20th) afternoon. This is the first chance I've had to update you guys. His name is Brody Michael (my middle name too). He was 7lbs 12 ounces and 22 inches long. He was a great size. Umbilical cord was loosely wrapped around his head, but did not cause any problems at birth. We are all home now. Brynn LOVES him. It's cute to see her hold him and pretend to be a mommy. I'd love to hear from you guys, I took some restrictions off the comments so you don't need you ID or passwords to comment. Enjoy your summers!!! I'll try to get some sleep while I enjoy my new father's day present.
Best always,
Mr C
PS. Enjoy the summer solstice (longest day of the year) in the days to come. Ijust had to get my dorky teacher comments in.....sorry.

Still Not Here
We were at the doctor's on Monday. They said that if the baby doesn't come by next Monday they will induce Mrs. Crandell (meaning give her medicine to make her go into labor). So it's either the baby comes in the next few days or we may be induced next Monday.
Still not sure of the name????
Take care,
Mr C

Have a great summer!
hey guys,
I wanted to thank you all for a nice end to the year. Although I was stressed a lot this year with college classes, the baby, and well, you guys, i feel thankful to have met you all. The letters some of you wrote to me made me feel great and inspired me to become a better teacher. Remember "the mode in which the inevitable is certain to occur is effort" . I will put an update on the baby in days to come. Keep checking.
Good luck to you all and always follow your hearts,
Mr. Crandell
