Drop by, say hi, and happy early Halloween!

Welcome Liam Quade Phoenix

Welcome Liam Quade Phoenix

On October 6, 2010 at 5:16 PM (a fascinating time, since it also equals his Uncle Matt’s birth date of May 16), my grandson, Liam Quade Phoenix was born healthy and with all toes and fingers.

Ah, a household of Libras. Take a look at these birth dates:

Mom – September 30

Nana – October 4

Big Sister – October 16

Dad – October 20

Uncle Matt is the lone Taurus and Aunt Sherri is the lone Pisces. LOL.

Libra is represented by the scales of balance, but I think with that many pairs of scales swinging around, we’re all just a tad unbalanced. LOL.

Here’s a few pictures of the happy event. (Liam’s sister – Kylah – will be 11 years old on the 16th, and she’s been a huge help to her folks and just loving her “little bro.”)
