Wish Hale a Happy Zeroth Birthday!

Happy Zero Day!



Yesterday, April 22nd, was Hale's due date. He's now no longer negative years old, having advanced into the zeros.

The blog has been quiet since we brought him home, two and half weeks ago. But the camera hasn't.

Meet Larry Lobster.

Long story about Larry. Couple stories Actually. Hale's wearing a onesie from our friends Michael and Michele who run El El Frijoles, a taqueria in Maine. Michele was a teacher at JMSG with Amy, and Michael a photographer buddy of mine. Then they moved to Maine. We miss them.

Hale's got a buddy over there he'll meet over lobster tacos some summer, name of Jasper Wedgwood.

Ask Hale about Larry Lobster sometime.


Yes, Grandma Patsy, babies sometimes do that. Even in your house!


Thanks Grandpa Don for our latest Family Portrait!


Not falling, not flying; sleeping.


This one goes out to my brother Stevo, whom I think Hale resembles in this picture. And not just because his face is all squishy, either.


In order to take a baby home, you don't have to take classes, or get a licence, or become certified, or pass a test... but you do get a DVD!

  3. It was so good to hear from you guys! I am so glad that Hale is doing so great and way to go on the breast feeding! That is a real accomplishment! Have you been seeing the Lactation specialist still? So we are finally home and it is sooooo nerve racking having him here with us now (good nerve racking, you know how it is)!!! I am such a nut case about how much he is eating and if he is getting enough. . . he is still such a lazy eater and really didn't meet what the "standards" are, but the Dr. said he was good to go! I didn't sleep at all last night since I am not used to all his grunts and baby sounds. . . and lets not forget about all his gas!!! I was shocked at how loud he is!! So wish us luck for tonight, we are now officially members of the "no sleep club"!!! How did Hale do with eating once he was out? Sara in the NICU says hi and she is now taking over the "pent house" :) It was so good to hear from you and I hope Hale and you guys are doing great!!! I love all the pictures, he is getting soooo big! Take Care!
