Here in the midwest it's Prairie Farms for us
B&J, Island Ice Cream and I've now found Stafford Creamery. The latter 2 are Vermont "small producers". Stafford makes a MOST excellent Coffee ice cream. Not only is their base ice cream really good their choice of coffee is Smooooooth, like a really good cup of coffee, not like diner coffee poured into the ice cream.

My son and his wife had a baby today. Matthew 9lbs 3oz
That's a BIG boy! DD1 was only 5lbs 9oz, DD2 5lbs 15oz.
Congratulations to you and the parents.
 
Good morning everyone. My whole family stayed up all night watching old movies, except Dh, who worked. Dh came home from work, and announced the FIOS man would be coming. We upgraded our internet, and they're doing it as a new installation. We may, or may not need a new fiber optic cable, and a new router. Oh joy.
 
The problem with 'big' babies is that there is always the possibility of gestational diabetes in the mother. Something doctors are always aware of. Sometimes babies are just big due to dad or mom being tall or large framed and larger than the norm when they are born. Usual weight for a girl baby is in the 6-7 pound range and boys 7-8 pounds.

When I worked OB Neonatal and Delivery Scrub we saw babies in the 11 to 12 + pound range on occasion. 9 is big but not all that much larger than the 7-8 normal range for a baby boy.

I think Matthew is just a healthy beautiful big baby boy. Poor mom really had a work out shoving him out into the world! My best and blessings to the family and grandparents.
