    My best work ever...

    Male version that is.
    The first two pictures, Sofia and I are working on the drawers for Sebastian's chest of drawers.

    This past Friday the 11th Sebastian was born. We had a very long weekend and today we got out of the hospital. The wife and Sebastian are great. He was born at 10.11 pounds and 23 inches (I need to rund a DNA test; too big to be mine...)

    Sorry for all the pictures, but you know how it is. Now I should be back to semi normal activities with the lathe.

    PS: Does anyone have a spare cow that can lend me for a while? This kid eats every hour.

    Congratulations! You have two beautiful children! Children are a blessing from God.

    Congratulations. Glad everyone is doing well. From the looks of your daughter ... just as you are getting to sleep through the night.... you have had your last full nights sleep for a while. It's worth it though.

    Congrats on the new addition. He's a beauty! But I don't think the naked pics are allowed here.
    Alan T. Thank God for every pain free day you live.
