Given that I haven't posted on this blog for months, I'm not sure if anyone still reads it, but I thought I'd take a few moments to inform my loyal readers of a new addition to the family.

Micah Kaplan Yarbrough was born October 15, 2007 at 11:40 AM at Prentise Women's Hospital (part of Northwestern Memorial Hospital) in downtown Chicago, just like like his older brother Evan.

He arrived 10 days before he was expected and almost a month sooner than his brother (who was quite late) and was a little smaller, but still a robust 7lb 11oz and 20.25" long.

Mom and baby are doing fine.  They are both sleeping right now in fact.  We'll be heading home in a few days and start to figure out the mysteries of chasing two kids around.

Evan is at home with his grandparents right now trying to convince them that he goes to bed at 10:30 usually and get 10 cookies everynight before bed.

Here is a picture at 1 hour old.  He was sleeping then too.  He sleeps a lot so far.  He barely ever cries, but I'm sure he's just building up his strength for later. :)
