Greg and Kelley

We wanted to give mom and Adam some time to rest this afternoon so we went on an outing to Balboa Island (where one finds Bluth's frozen banana stand) and Balboa Peninsula.  The girls' favorite part is taking the 3-car ferry from Balboa Island to Balboa Peninsula.  (In a miracle of modern geography, you drive on to the island but have to take a ferry to the peninsula.  Go figure.)  We had milkshakes on the roof of Ruby's diner at the end of Balboa Pier, and then drove home with the top down.

Born today June 23, 2008, at 10:31 a.m.  He weighed almost 8 pounds, and measured 20.5 inches fore and aft.

He had a bit of a rough time coming, apparently having wrapped the umbilical cord around his neck, a tree, and the bumper of a truck.  He also managed to arrange his shoulder such that you'd think he didn't want to come out.  But out he came, a bit shaken.  (You can see, in the first picture of the gallery, taken just minutes after he was born, his original grayish color.  He is holding his own oxygen mask.)  But he snapped back admirably in no time, turned a nice pinkish color, and immediately ate his first lunch.
