Today, June 17th 2009, Robert, my brother, and Erin, his wife, gave birth (technically Erin did that part) to their son, Robert Henry Axson. He was born at 2:05, was 6 lbs, 11 oz, and was 19 inches long. He's perfect. I remember my dad picking me up at a relatives house in 1983 and telling me that we were going to see my new baby brother. He took me to LDS hospital. I climbed on the bed with my mother and stared into my brother's eyes. Today in the very same walls where I saw my brother for the first time, I saw him becoming a father. Priceless. To see him bathe his baby and to hold a new life, fresh from the arms of God and loved ones, was a memory I will always hold dear. I'll post pictures tomorrow.
I also should say that I was able to have this moment kid-free because of my sister that technically isn't my sister, but for the way I feel about her may as well be. Amber, thank you.

Congrats Chris, to Erin and Robert and you too! It was a really bonding moment when Dustin had his first child as well. I remember the feeling.
Congratulations
