A Tour of the Nursery

A lot of people have been asking me what the nursery looks like now that it's pretty much done. I'm horrible at describing things like that and my response is usually something along the lines of either, "It has dinosaurs" if I think the person who's asking doesn't really care or, if they seem genuinely interested they get a slightly longer but still mostly useless response like, "It has dinosaurs. And there's a crib and a glider and it has a wall that's painted three different colors in stripes or bars or something, but not like a bar graph and not stripes like a candy cane...it has dinosaurs..."

So, rather than try to describe it I figured I'd just take a video of it and post it here for everyone to see. It's about 40 seconds long and doesn't have any sound so it's safe for work. I was going to narrate it but it seems pretty self-explanatory and it saves you (and more importantly, me) the torture of having to hear my voice.

Without further ado, here's Patrick's nursery, the cleanest it will probably ever be...

Co-ed Shower

Here are some pics from the co-ed shower that was at our house on June 7th. Ang and I had a GREAT time and we hope everybody else did too. All the cooking and cool decorations you see are from Anne, Amy, Katie and Anna. And the AWESOME chicken was done by the grill-master, Justin.

Thanks again to everybody who could make it! It was so much fun!

A Little Trip to the Fourth Dimension

Here are some 2D pictures of our 4D ultrasound. Sorry to rob you of two entire dimensions but the internet isn't that good yet. Enjoy...


He's only 4 pounds in these pictures but it looks like most of it is in his cheeks and lips (and nose...insert self-depracating joke here)




















Here he is sleeping




















And trying to eat his hand




















And another good shot of him sleeping
