Thanks!
I just got half an hour ago from taking the other 4 to meet their new baby brother. All four unanimously and enthusiastically agreed that he's well worth keeping. :-) In fact, it was quite difficult to drag them out of there.
Yep, after yesterday's adventure was all over, I turned to the one nurse who had helped us the whole time and said, "That wasn't exactly the traditional way to do it, was it?" She readily agreed it was not. :-)
