Our New Baby

On our vacation to Michigan, we found a beach house and put in an offer. It's a modest place, right on the water. After a little work this winter (by little work, I mean total gutting), we'll be able to enjoy it and rent it out the rest of the summer.



Right out the front door is a small beach in a no-wake zone, so there are not many waves. Over the sand dune is Lake Michigan, which at time feels like the ocean. Check out the map and other pics here.

Place your bets!

At work, we're letting Rosalie pick the winner of Illini games

Big Girl

This is before we ate at Big Boy. We'll never eat here again (bad service; not clean; bad food). But we got a cute picture.

Help with dishes

I was cleaning out the dishwasher yesterday and when I turned around to find Rosalie standing up, looking inside. This is the first thing she's found that she can truly pull herself up on; everything else is too high up or too low for her to use.

Who needs toys...

When you have cords. I think I the next 'toy' our kitten might get is a ball of string.

Greta's Baptism

We had a wonderful weekend in Madison with Mary's sister, Sarah, and her family of 6. Greta had a beautiful baptism yesterday!

Here is one of the best videos from the weekend, taken on Rob's new Droid X. You have to giggle out loud watching Evan (now 2) playing peek-a-boo with Rosalie!



We have tons of photos to upload, and will do so soon.
