Fall Sun


Lucy thought the sun felt "warm on my nieck" yesterday. Grandma came and brough Halloween stickers and pencils and other treats and even came along to watch Henry's soccer practice. Thanks Pati - we all really enjoyed having you with us yesterday!

Double Duece

Henry's first jersey is proudly displayed here. The St. Patrick Shamrock's have yet to play a real game, mostly they are learning how to put on shin guards and kick the ball between eachother's legs. I am told the freshest move on the field these days is called a "nutmeg". I obviously have a lot to learn.

Three Cheers for NICU Nurses Everywhere

(Corinne Ebersole)
After visiting my cousin's new baby in Emanual's NICU in Portland yesterday I was reminded of our time with Henry in Tacoma General's NICU. I saw this etched into the wall of Emanual's NICU and was compelled to snap a shot. So, here is my shout out to NICU nurses everywhere, some of you are my best friends, some of you saved our son's life, some of you have done the same for my friends' babies and now my cousin's. We owe you more than you can imagine and we appreciate the delicate and unyielding job you do. Three cheers for NICU nurses everywhere! And welcome Miss Corinne, you are a sight!
