Doing fine

Video: Maple, The Beginning
We're doing good. I'm excited about coming to America. Can't wait. I'm also bringing Maple back because it doesn't cost anything for her to fly and everyone in America really wants to see her. Whatever! Like that would ever happen! She was just born, are you crazy for even thinking that would happen? You people are crazy! Anyways, here's the first video of Maple out in the this crazy world.

Two Daughters and a Beautfiul Wife


I actually stole that title from a song, but it's also true. I'm sorry I haven't posted in a while. I've been busy as usual. Well, she finally came. The little 7 lb 15 oz Maple Anne Thixton entered the world here in Korea at 10:30 am, May 22, 2009. I think we're sticking with the Korean time because trying to do the American time would just be confusing. So, it was only a 26 hour labor this time. 11 hours shorter than Chloe, so no complaining here. The Korean hospital isn't as accommodating as the American hospital but they did a good job. In America, there's more nurses, doctors, and machines. Sometimes it can feel cluttered. Sometimes you also need the nurses. The family is supposed to take care of the mother after the birth but the church made me work and Carol had Chloe to take care of. So, a day after having a baby, Brandy is sent home. This is great news for us because it's easier to take care of her at home then to keep taking taxi's back and forth from the hospital. Maple is very pretty, but I think she might lean towards Brandy's side of the family. I guess it makes sense because Chloe resembles my family, it's only fair. Anyway, everyone's healthy and happy. Enjoy the pics and videos that I'll post soon.
