First Post...Day Two
It would be much cuter to post here as if William was typing...narrating as if it were him speaking in the first person. Alas, cute is not my forte, so you'll have to bear with me until he is old enough to type on his own.
William Morrison Farver was born on January 25th, 2008 at 1:08 p.m. in Houston, Texas.
He weighed 7 lbs., 1 ounce at birth and measured 20.5 inches long.
We took this picture shortly after we moved into the room where we're staying now. He's been eating so well, sleeping regularly, and - of course - giving me lots of opportunities to perfect my diaper changing skillz.
Below is a shot of me changing my first diaper. William was extremely patient with me as I figured it all out. My goal is to be the fastest diaper changer in the west, and if my improvement in the last 12 hours is any indication, I'm well on my way to achieving it.
Day 2 is going to be a big day:
- Some tests
- Register person was already here for SSN and Birth Certificate info.
- Worst surgery ever
- More diaper changing lessons
Day 3 will be even bigger:
Heading home.
Thanks for checking in...I'll post more soon. -Adam

Congratulations, Farvers! You're all looking great, and we can't wait to meet William. Don't worry, Adam - with all the practice you're going to get, I have no doubt that you'll be the fastest diaper changer I've ever seen.

A series of firsts: a first baby boy for the Farvers, a first diaper change, a first blog comment EVER from yours truly! Congrats to you both. This is a really neat way of keeping everyone in the loop although little William better not have a Blackberry until he's at least 8-years old! Way to go techno-dad Adam and magnificent momma Melissa! You'll make amazing parents. Best of luck!
PS: I think you should bring the boy to Dudes' Weekend. Ok, maybe for DW 2029.

Congrats, you guys and the little man look great. I'll give you the West Pop Farver, but don't bring your diaper skillz out East!

Congratulations you guys! You both look great and, while it's hard to get a clear look of William, I'm sure he's strikingly handsome. I hope to make it down to Houston sometime soon (rodeo, perhaps) and I would love to meet William if I do!

Hello my dear ones - Melissa, William, Adam!, and Chloe - this is grandfather Charlie writing who would like to be known to his new grandson as "Popi" - a combo of Pop, Pops, Charlie, Papa and Grampy - back to my Dad and maternal grandfather - but mostly, I just want Will to call me! I am available for all sorts of adventures and journeys, and promise to bring the young lad back tired and dirty and full of new ideas and radical thoughts and promises of future adventures that will drive his loving parents to distraction - but then that's my job, and I am ready and "ORVIS" certfied to deliver this promise.
Love to you all, Popi
