Simon has another new baby cousin. Zachary Stanley Pankewich was born to my older brother Skip and his wife Steph on Dec. 27th. Although we weren't expecting Zach for almost another 2 months we are glad that he made it here and is doing remarkably well for as early as he came. Mama and Baby keep giving us good reports every day and it sounds like they are even getting to spend some time together in the NICU. Steph got to hold him a bit yesterday and big sis Emerald, Daddy, Aunt Heidi and Uncle Jeff have also visited him. My mom has been helping with the kiddos at home while Skip and Steph spend as much time at the hospital with Zach as they can. We are keeping the whole family in our thoughts and prayers as they adjust to this new little being in thier lives. Emerald has still not given up on calling him by her preferred name for him (Lobster) which makes you realize that things are still a bit normal as this seems to be a typical 4 yr old reaction!

Thanks for this post! We appreciate all the thoughts and prayers. We are sure that Simon will have fun with his new cousin and I just can't imagine how chaotic it is all going to be in a few short years when all the cousins are tearing around the place together. We love you all and will keep you updated on Zach's progress.
