Donovan Lyle (soon to be if all goes well) Oxenrider was born at 9:27 AM on Monday, October 25th 2004. He weighed in at 8 lbs, 4 oz and 21 inches long. So far all indications are excellent. Our neice is doing well and still appears committed to the adoption. Eliz and I have been doing all the handling, feeding, changing (well, Eliz, anyway), etc.

Here is Donovan's first picture, taken when he was two days old just before we left the hospital:
