I've just checked the stats. At 9lb 11oz, erik's birthweight was exactly the same as the combined weight of my eldest daughter (1 month early - 5lb 9oz) and my son (2 months early - 4lb 2oz!).

Congratulations to Mica and Family!

I see the Alembic T shirt is close to him...educate early eh???
It is a long time ago since that happened to me and I sometimes think where does the time go
(Daughter 24 years old, graphic designer, Son 19 years old, autoparts assistant and angry bass player!!!)
Enjoy the time as they grow up pretty fast

hi people
i had the distinct pleasure of speaking with momma mica today. all is well. she is on a strict rest regime after a long delivery attempt. or as i said and we think waiting for an alembic is tough?....lol
She will be back in the shop in the next week or two.
erik is doing fine. He's growing into a series 2 weight zone....lmao

I'm glad all is well! I wonder if some new oval
inlay ideas may come from this. Personalized face
ovals. Yeah, thats the ticket!
Terrc, I really connect with your statement. I've
got three and they are every where. Enjoy the  
moment.
Congrats again Mica and all.

Oh, an Alemboy.
 
Sorry had to make this joke since nobody did it before.
 
Congratulations from Germany.

Dear Mica and family,  
 
Sincere congratulations from our household to yours.
May Erik bring years and years of happiness into your home and hearts (not like it was missing or anything like that)    
 
Our one child (now 10) has fortunately done that for us.
 
Mazel Tov for sure!

I'm a little late, but better than never!!  
 
Congrats to the Clan, Mica, Bill, Ron and Susan!
 
My boy is 14, and the above posters are correct, they do grow up fast!  Mine is buggin me for a PA all the time...I think Eric might have better luck when he's that age (Grampa, can we build a PA?).  
 
And for that matter, how does this Custom creation sound?  Bet it screams hee hee hee
 
Congrats nonetheless!

I'll bet at 14 he'll still be digging on James Brown, with apologies to Tower of Power.

Thanks for all your kind thoughts and wishes. My recovery went really well and Erik's doing great. He pretty much sleeps on the job:

Looking good Mica. I was expecting to see him in an Alembic romper suit though ;-)

Sweet!

Good looking Kiddo!

Beautiful Baby Boy : )
 
Spend as much time with him as you can, they grow up so fast.
