Outside
Just a couple short vids from a recent trek around Ida Lee Park in town, and a couple still shots of our newest neighbor.
As you can imagine, there's a fair amount of hullabaloo about the neighbor...
Come on, dad!
Bye-bye snakes!
From our neighbor's back-deck.
Later!

We still have a blog?!?!?
So maybe 8 months between blog posts is too long...
Sorry about that. Finn is 2 1/2 going on "can we sell children on eBay or craigslist?" only once or twice a week. Other than those special moments, the ones that bring grandparents the world over such perverse pleasure, he really is doing great and mom and dad can't really complain either. It was a wild and crazy fall and winter, and spring seems to have leaped overnight into 100-degree days o' summer. As always, we promise to do a better job (but don't hold you breath) and thought we'd surprise everyone with a couple little somethings...
Be well, stay cool and give us a holler the next time you're in the Piedmont!

Off to School!
Well, Finn survived his first day of school. OK, so it was daycare but hey, it was a big deal!!
Here're a few pix of him this morning before we went. He was in fine form, as you can tell....
And, if you're curious, mom and dad survived too.
Love to all!

The summer's flying by and our postings have gotten fewer and farther between. Finn is doing great, and mom and dad couldn't be more in love with him. He's totally amazing and every day brings something more incredible. In more ways than he'll probably ever know, he really gives more to us than we do to him...
Anyway, we're getting settled in our new "country" digs and loving the space and pace. Mags has gotten super busy and the fall looks even more so. Jamestown is keeping dad busy, with some really fascinating projects (and some cool travel around the corner), and come September 7 the boy starts daycare 3 days a week. We're all very excited, if a little trepidatious.
Finn was still off-the-charts at his 18-month checkup. Well, technically, his noggin and his height were off the charts; his weight was just near the top of the charts. Might have something to do with his new diet of solid foods.... He's a great fruit eater, a middling protein eater (have to work on that for Snackerbowl) and an awful veggie eater (which is just fine for Snackerbowl.)
His fascination with planes, trains and automobiles has fully kicked in, and he's becoming quite adept at a wide range of animal noises: monkey, dog, cat, wolf, goat and sheep (interchangeable in Finn-speak), lion, tiger, bear (also pretty interchangeable now that I think about it....) and elephant. Oh, cripes, how could I forget!! He does a mean snake impression, too. A little Parseltongue, this one... (Yeah, dad's a dork.)
Wanted to get a few pix and a vid from a trip to the Air and Space Museum's Udvar-Hazey Center that we made on a recent rainy, swampy day. Museums are a really interesting experience with someone who's got an attention span of about 15 seconds.... It was a hoot; I don't know who had more fun, me or the boy. Anyway, it was a great excuse for gratuitous photography, and a great excuse to post an update for you all.
We send our love to all, and formally announce the opening of our new casa to anyone who finds themselves in the Piedmont region, and specifically to anyone who finds themselves near Gilbert's Corner.
Peace and bacon grease!

Just really cute...

Dirt
Everyone's well, happy and healthy, but we HAVE been bad about The Report...
So, in the midst of boxing up our lives, thought this vid would bring a smile to everyone's faces. We miss you all and can't wait to catch up over the summer.
Peace and summer grease!

Still here
Sorry, sorry, sorry... We've been really bad about posting lately.
Luckily, there are now about 3 to 4 months of pix and vids for us to parse through, so you may have to wait for a few more days on that.
Finn is still in one piece, he hasn't grown horns, or a third eye, or anything weird like that. He's still the cutest little dude around.
But his parents are really irresponsible. And don't care about other people.
In the meantime, wanted to post the boy's latest 40 times from his 15 month checkup today...
Weight: 30lbs 8oz
Height: 34 inches
Mellon: 20 inches
Still off the charts. Dude's a monster.
Love to all. Happy spring. More later.
Peace out.
