Babies are everywhere, or almost everywhere, and we’ve got one now too. One happy grandma here!
Mazen Duke Younger-Monson was born at 3:38 in the morning on September 7 at Martha Jefferson Hospital in Charlottesville, Virginia. He weighs eight pounds and is 20.5 inches long! Here he is:
Everywhere Babies is witten by Susan Meyers with illustrations by Marla Frazee (Houghton Mifflin, 2001). Babies adore the book because babies like to look at babies! I hope Mazen likes the copy I bought just for him. I’m bringing it with me when I go back to the hospital to visit him tonight. Can’t wait!

Thanks to each and every one of you for your congratulations! Mazen is doing well and so is Mom, although she’s missing a lot of sleep. I hate it that I’m not there to help more but plan to see him again this weekend with my younger daughter, Laura and her fiance Matt.
