No News = Good News

We’ve just kept right on trucking over here in Rockford… despite somewhere in the neighborhood of 16″ of snow sitting around in drifts. I guess if nothing else we can all be thankful that Ian wasn’t born this week instead of two weeks ago.

During his two weeks on Earth Ian has yet to master the art of the English language, though we’re trying very hard to teach him such words as “Mama,” “Dada,” and “A full night’s sleep.” He’s actually doing really well on that point, however… he’s usually sleeping about 4-5 hours in a row, followed by a diaper change/feeding and right back to bed for 4-5 hours. (Melissa informs me that he’s up for quite awhile during that feeding part… daddy does the diaper change bit and then usually goes right back to bed, I must admit.)

For the most part all is well in our family. I keep waiting for something unusual or interesting to happen for a nice picture, but not much (in the way of a photo opportunity) has happened out of the ordinary. More updates to follow!

Thanks again for all the comments! Knowing that people are reading this makes it much more fun to update!
