Default It's a boy!!!!

Born 26 May 06, 5lbs 11oz, 18 3/4 inches long. His name is Camden Beau. On a side note, I had to order a new heating element for my oven. Came home from the hospital this morning to take a shower. Decide to install the element to cook some pork chops and chicken for the dogs.It has been in the fridge and mommy and me aren't coming home till tomorrow. Anyway, I unplugged the oven to remove the element the other day, but forgot that I plugged it back in to cook some stuff on top of the stove. I get home this morning and with my hurried excitement decide to install the new element-like I said, still plugged in. The connection touched the side of the oven and it blew up. I thought I blew my index finger off. I look down and a deep layer of skin about the size of two dimes is flapping off of my finger and my other fingers have soot on them......Last week, I was in the hospital 3 times getting metal shavings DRILLED out of my eye. I've never had wierd things like this happen. With the boy here, I guess it's time to start playing it alot safer......
