HE'S HERE!

It only took 1 hour so we apologize for not calling everyone. Of course we are very excited but upset at the same time. Golden Palace was onsite and ready to hand over our check when at the last minute their team of lawyers decided to withdraw their offer. So the nurse handed me the birth certificate to sign and I didn't know what to put down. She said just go with who he looks like most, so I wrote down the first name that came to mind, Roland Martin. Can you see why I came up with the name? Who does the baby look like more Susan or Jason?

Here are the pics!

First diaper change (yes we used the strap!)

Putting him down for his first night



Thanks Dave for giving us the opportunity to post this.

GP Bratton

Kai, Landon, Robert, Fred, Joe? Nope, none of these will be the name of our child. We have been offered an amount we can not pass up. We have sold all rights to the naming of our child to www.goldenpalace.com.

YES, THATS RIGHT. Coming soon will be Golden Palace Bratton. Please refer to him as GP from this point forward. Also, we have signed non-disclosure documents so we can not talk about the amount of money, all we can say is that its enough to move to California so we are moving soon after GP is born.

Thanks for your support.

One more week!

Well, it's almost here. I went for a check up yesterday, and Kai is officially 7 lbs. and counting. Looks like everything is on track, he dropped a bit into the pelvic area, so that's a sign he'll be making a run for the border soon! I can't believe that it's nine months already, it seemed like yesterday that we announced the news. Star anJason are out fishing as much as possible before the little guy gets here. I don't know about anyone else, but I'm SO nervous and anxious! The doctor says that if I'm late, they won't let me go past the July 14th due date more than a week. So this is officially telling everyone to be ready b/c it will be around the corner!!!!
