Today was all about the tepee. Matthew, Liz and I went into the woods and we decided to build a tepee. Liz went back to the house and got my hatchet and then I started cutting down saplings. Liz and Matthew began to pull off the branches while I cut down the straightest trees I could find. I cut down about six or so and positioned them together with Matt and Liz. It was a lot of fun and we have the start of a really good tepee. The tepee is about 12 feet tall and about ten feet in diameter. We've got a lot of work left but it's already pretty cool. I really enjoyed this and it reminded me of all the forts that I built like this when I was a child. I hope Matthew catches the fever and continues to build up the colony.
My daughter has been born: Isabella Kiera Baldwin. She is so beautiful and healthy. She was born on November 4, 2011. The labor was not that long but my wife, Liz, was in a lot of pain. We owe a great deal of gratitude to the midwife for intervening and helping to manually progress the labor. Isabella was a big baby weighing 8 lbs. 11.5 oz. and was 22". I am so excited to have a daughter and I can't wait to raise her. She is so cute. Her brothers Matt and Lex are also excited to have a sister. With all the superheroes and sports we can now have princesses and fairytales. My family is growing and I have God to thank.
