Announcing Cooper David
All right everybody, we have a new cousin (or cousin removed, depending). Heidi was-a-Huber, Aunt Vida's daughter, gave birth to her first born son on Monday, March 6. I have not yet heard whether or not she lay him in a manger. Her water broke Monday morning, and after 5 hours of "hard, peaceful labor", Cooper David was born. I shall have to take notes.
Uncle Harold is bursting his buttons, and we may safely assume Aunt Vida is pretty pleased, too. Heidi and her husband Dave said they sensed her presence during labor, which is pretty special, because it would be hard to go through such a life-changing event without someone dear to you that you hoped to share it with. Heidi and Dave are excited and awestruck at this new life that has appeared.
The new member of Gen 3 weighed 8 pounds, 1 ounce, and all is well. Sorry, that is all the vital stats I have at this time. Louise flew out on Thursday to be with the new family and lend her expertise in new mommyhood to Heidi. Let us hope some pictures will be forthcoming.

Talked to Louise today, who is out there with Heidi. She reports that all is very well. She and Heidi are having a delightful time together. Baby Cooper is very laid back, a lazy nurser and can sleep through all of Louise and Heidi's shinanegins, but will do anything that his daddy commands him to do, bless his heart.
Dave is home from work for a week or two, so the house is well taken care of. BAby has chestnut hair and just the right features.
Louise writes, "so that is the news from baltimore where the older cousin is enjoying her vacation (getting lots of sun on the deck in the company of a large but well mannered dog) the younger cousin is smiling finally and well on her way to being a confidant mom and the little one is cute cute cute and i'm guessing has gained a pound this week."
