retro brett store!

It's never too early to start thinking about Christmas 2007! If you're looking for something special for that special someone, might I suggest something that includes a spacefaring monkey? No, it's not another sequal to the Every which way but loose movie franchise. It's just about everything available at the retro brett store on Cafepress! Check it out...laser toting, jetpacked monkeys on shirts, mugs, and mousepads. And don't miss the "strange visitor from another planet" themed stuff. I've actually got one of the monkey shirts and it never fails to grab the ladies' attention. Little Jesse is even waiting to grow into a matching bodysuit.

Lil’ G: WELCOME TO THE WORLD!


Yes! We have a baby! On 11/30/2006, our little Jesse was born. He was a healthy 7 lbs, 15 oz and a nice 21.5 inches long. The labor went easier (a mere 8.5 hours) than we expected and everyone is quite happy about that. Plus, we’re all healthy, sleeping reasonably well, and simply amazed at our new little boy. We are truly blessed and we are incredibly grateful for God’s generosity. It is and will continue to be a great responsibility and we pray we will raise our little man to be the big man God would have him to be.

It’s funny. At one point, I walked by the hospital nursery and Jesse was the only baby and there happened to be two nurses standing near him. I joke that I saw them mouth the words chosen one and prophecy. Seriously, though, we will do all we can to ensure he does have a terrific life.

It’s obviously taken me a while to get this posted but, you know, I’ve been busy. Here’s a photo…bask in the glory that is his handsomeness.
