Hi There

Sorry the diary didn't work so well. The hospital lied when they said they had internet access which is making this very tough. I wrote a lot and will update when I get the chance but for now:
I'd like to present Lee Simpliciano Howland. He was born at 9:21 PM. He's 6 lbs 11 oz and was 18 inches long. I had a spiel all set up about he was a spawn and evil and all that, but the little booger is just too cute.

Oh my god. OH MY GOD!

You're a father now, and you're the father of one seriously cute kid!

I think I speak (write?) for many people when I say holy crap.

But seriously, congratulations!!! I'm thrilled that you, the wife, and Lee are all happy & healthy. Yay!

Every time I see these pictures I start crying. What is the matter with me - when did I become such a girl?

So thrilled for you all. You both sounded great this AM - tired, but really happy. Cannot wait to hear about the first 24, 48, 72 hours!

Hugs. December 28th can't come fast enough!

OMG!!! He is too beautiful!! Congratulations. Who knew you could make such a cute baby? I sure didn't! I guess we should thank Jenny for his looks, ; )

Melanie beat me to the obligatory "thank god he looks like Jenny."

Congratulations Michael.

To the parents, Jenny and Michael,

Everytime I try to write, I keep getting teary. The emotions are so strong right now,

Thanks for the beautiful picutres. It's not as good as being there, but it is very special to see our beautiful Lee just a few hours old.

You are so good to share this amazing event with all of us.

Nancy sent the grandparents congratulatory flowers, which we have in the store for all to see. I'm going to print out a picture to add. I think being a grandparent is a really good thing.

Love to all and a hold Lee tight for me, please.

Love, Mom
