January 10th, 2010 must have simply been spent in hibernation, as I didn’t end up with any pictures from that day. I believe that was when Grampa Ray and Grandma Barb headed home for Florida. From the weather I was reading about down there, they didn’t miss much being up here. Thanks for visiting you […]
On January the 8th, 2010 Nina had another check-up with Dr. Bultje, with little to report, and in this case, no news is good news! See this image larger. Grandma Barb holds Nina in one of her many outfits of the day, this one a catchy pink and white number with a luxurious purple evening […]
Sorry about the delay, folks… we’re trying to return to normalcy around here in many ways. Melissa and I actually got to see a movie the other night, on TV. Nina’s sleep schedule is getting to where we want it, almost. Lots to tell so let’s get to it! Here’s a quick note to all […]
Oh kiddo… three already? Those people that always sigh and say “they grow up so quickly,” they were right. I was listening to a recording the other night of you saying the alphabet months and months ago… it was mostly Bs and Ds, but the melody was spot-on. Now your alphabet is perfect, you can […]
January 1st, 2010 and we were all exhausted… whether from the waiting (chromosome test still not in at that point) or the holding of little Nina at odd hours of the night. That sun looks a little bright, huh Nina? See this image larger. January 2nd, Nina is being bathed in the sun’s rays from […]
On the 29th of December, while Grampa Dave and Grandma Marcia entertained Ian… See this image larger. Seth seemed to keep himself busy, watching the fish go by! See this image larger. Grampa Dave takes Ian for a “drag” around the house despite being very tired. (Did I mention they are building next to us?) […]
The morning of the 28th was our late version of Christmas. The birth of Nina and Ian’s excitement of the morning made for a happy day indeed! The bold general of a one-man unwrapping army surveys his battlefield, and envisions the wrapping paper carnage to follow. See this image larger. Somewhere there’s a piggy bank […]
Let’s take a moment and honor Nina’s battle with Jaundice, which our physician says we have won. A little battle, but one that’s over, and that’s important. How to beat it? A bili-blanket, a lot of love, and… well… see the video! Click here to see the video. It is 5 MB in size, which […]
I want to thank everybody for their kind comments on the blog, and also there’s a lot of people to thank for other forms of generosity during what has been a trying time. Here’s how the rest of December looked, in pictures… the first a bonus picture that really belongs in an earlier entry. This […]
Where to begin? Well, how about the beginning? The dates don’t make sense. Really if the due date that the fancy measuring devices came up with are to be believed, Nina was either conceived while Grandma Sue was in town (not bloody likely!) or while Melissa was still on birth control. And then there was […]
