You may have read this post about some highlights from Nico’s first month.  (It’s on our satellite blog.)  Well, at long last, we’re finally posting photos from Nico’s first month. I haven’t put any up from the hospital — his birth photos are here, you’ve seen a couple of videos, and really, the time we [...]

This year we’ve got lots and lots to be thankful for.  In the past year, both of our dads have had surgery and both are doing really well now.  Frank’s new job is turning out to be even better than his old one.  And our biggest reason to be thankful is still cooking. We celebrated [...]
