First, a reminder: There is NO CSA PICK-UP today! We are taking this final week off to best welcome our new son, Rusty, into our lives.
Today is Rusty’s fifth day in our household. We are loving our quiet time with our little guy. The days pass by in a blur, hours filled with baby watching and holding. Of course, we are sleeping less than before, but we have fewer tasks during the day too. Changing diapers, nursing, feeding ourselves — it’s quiet, slow work. Oh, yes, and it helps that we’re completely smitten with little Rusty. He is an amazing gift in our lives.
Thank you again for your flexibility and understanding in allowing us this time for our family’s adjustment. Remember that you definitely received your money’s worth of vegetables this fall, even with this week off! The CSA will start up again the first Tuesday in February. Your final payment for 2009 is due to us by December 20. You can mail remaining checks to us at: Oakhill Organics, P.O. 1698, McMinnville, OR 97128. Also, if you have questions about your remaining balance or whether you’ve signed up for 2010, you can email us: farm(at)oakhillorganics(dot)org.
And, now to the really important business: photos of little Rusty!!!!!!
Just a few hours after birth.
Later that same day, hanging out on Katie’s lap.
Cute baby feet!!!!!
Awake and aware on his fourth day of life.
Safe and secure in his Papa’s strong arms.
