Daddy Post: Well, we returned from our trip to DC last weekend for Steve's 60th birthday. As you can tell by the pics we've started a new pop icon which can be seen on our shirts (thanks Mark & Cindy). When people ask who it is I just tell them it's the 2006 Government Employee of the Year. Nice work Steve. And to think, you almost became a hairdresser had Myrtle had her way. The girls reveled in having the family around and it was nice to see them so comfortable around everyone. The trip was a bit long and didn't really work for Willa, but we made it.
Ruby Michele was born on Christmas Day, 2005 at 2:33 PM. She weighed 8 lbs., 14 oz. and was 20 1/2" tall. Willa Catherine was born on November 5 (England's Guy Fawkes Night or Bonfire Night), 2007 at 6:33 AM. She weighed 8 lbs., 3 oz. and was 20 1/2" tall just like Ruby. Their parents are a very proud Matt and Marty. Ruby was named after Matt's Great-Grandma Ruby Anderson and Marty's Great Aunt Ruby Beebe. Her middle name is in honor of Marty's mom Michele. Willa is a female version of William which is also Marty's father and grandfather's name. Catherine is in honor of Matt's mom Joan. Willa Cather is also one of Marty's favorite authors. She can be called "Billie" for short. We will be posting on their blog, as they both have a few things to learn technology-wise.
