Hello all,
This is Michael and I'm trying to figure all this stuff out. I had fun posting the blog about our son Harrison last night and want to give praise to my beautiful wife who does such a great job with the family and house. So here is a tribute to her and the children

We are going to celebrate 4 years together on the 9th and I couldn't be happier than I am with her. It's funny to think that we have 3 children in 4 years of marriage, but I love all my family and wouldn't trade them for anything.

Now that the boys out number the girls, mama and Ginger will be the best of friends and have to stick together. Ginger loves to be with mama and learn from her (the cosmetology background helps). I love all of you and look forward to having a lovely and prosperous future together.

IT'S A BOY!!!!

it's a boy!!
Introducing Harrison Gilbert Belnap!!!!
Harrison was born April 1, 2009, yes, for all of you funny people out there that is April fool's day. He was born at 7:51 A.M. at Mountain View Hospital. He weighed in at 9 lbs 10 oz!!! and measured 22 in from head to toe.
Mamma was a trooper making the nurses laugh when she said that 'the contractions are not very strong.' The labor was different than the other two. The contractions were very sparatic so it was difficult to judge when to go to the hospital and when to start pushing. When it did come time to push he came pretty quick. I did get to catch him this time, you really have to pull to get them guys out of there, which was cool.
All in all, we have to say that hospitals are ok, but we did feel like a prisoner there. Harris had a tag on him, if we left the maternity ward alarms would sound and the whole place would shut down. But we were treated nicely and given meals on time (not bad tasting either). Now we can actually, with more conviction, say that home births are the bomb and everyone should try it!!
WARNING: Don't call him 'Harry' infront of Aubray unless you are bored of your existence!!! His nickname is Harris.
For your viewing pleasure are more pics below...enjoy!!!
