{align="right" height="150" hspace="15" width="150"}I\'m very happy to introduce you to the newest member of our familily, Nicholas Herbert, pictured here taking a nap with his proud dad.  He was born in the early morning hours of April 8th.  Since then he\'s kept us busy between feedings, diaper changes, and one to two hour cat naps throughout the day.  He\'s got quite a set of lungs on him, to letlet us know when he\'s hungry.  Nicholas is also a night owl like me, but hopefully he\'ll outgrow that soon.

When we brought him home, we were curious how Simon would react to him.  At first, whenever he cried or made some noise, Simon would run into his crate, but now when Nicholas is being held, Simon wll curl up next to the person holding the baby and occasionally sniff him.
